MrAaron Duxbury

I am currently pursuing a PhD in Evolutionary Psychology at the University of Wolverhampton, where I began my doctoral studies in October 2024. I completed my undergraduate degree in Psychology at the University of Wolverhampton earlier in the same year, and my academic journey has been shaped by a deep interest in understanding the evolutionary underpinnings of human behavior, particularly in the context of sexual attraction.

I am fortunate to be working under the mentorship of Dr. Manpal Bhogal, Dr. Niall Galbraith, and Dr. Daniel Farrelly, whose expertise and guidance have been invaluable to my research. Together, we are investigating the complex interplay between biological, psychological, and social factors that contribute to the expression of same-sex sexual attraction in humans.

Through my PhD research, I aim to contribute to the broader understanding of sexual diversity and human evolutionary psychology, this has been done by publishing my first research article in November 2024.
