Dr. Richard Ramsey

In Spring 2023, Richard Ramsey joined ETH Zürich as a Senior Scientist and became a member of the NCM lab, as well as an affiliate member of the SBS lab. When he's not reading brains, he can be found paying homage to David Bowie, playing football and running marathons.

Richard Ramsey 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, Rich 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 academic departments in the UK and Australia whilst also co-directing the Social Brain in Action Laboratory (SoBA Lab).

His research interests span a range of topics in social and cognitive neuroscience, and his lab embraces recent developments in methods and meta-science.
