About

Giorgio Vallortigara is a Full Professor at Università degli Studi di Trento, Italy. His research focuses on cognitive neuroscience, particularly exploring innate mechanisms of numerical cognition, brain asymmetry, and memory processing in both chicks and zebrafish. Recent articles have addressed topics such as face-selectivity in the avian brain and the representation of biological motion, providing insights into the evolutionary aspects of cognitive functions.
