Richard Ramsey

Curriculum Vitae

Rich completed his BSc and PhD at the University of Birmingham (UK). Originally from Leeds, West Yorkshire, he grew up with a keen interest in sport, which led him to study Sport and Exercise Sciences as an undergraduate. During his PhD, Richard became interested in the human brain and how we make sense of other people, and has since been performing research in Social and Cognitive Neuroscience. Since 2011, Rich has been a faculty member in several academic departments in the UK and Australia whilst also co-directing the Social Brain in Action Laboratory (SoBA Lab). In 2023, he joined ETH Zürich as a Senior Scientist and became a member of the NCM lab. When he's not reading brains, he can be found paying homage to David Bowie, playing football and running marathons.
