Juan David Leongómez

Associate professor, El Bosque University

I am an Associate Professor and Researcher at the Human Behaviour Lab (LACH), Faculty of Psychology, at El Bosque University in Bogota, Colombia. My research interests include mate choice and human vocal communication, with an aspiration towards understanding musicality. I am also interested in bioacoustics and psychoacoustics, as well as hormonal effects on human behaviour. I am becoming more and more passionate about quantitative methods and R programming, to promote reproducibility and open science.
