Peter L. Hurd is an academic specialising in biology. He is an Associate Professor aligned to the Department of Psychology's Biocognition Unit, and the University's Centre for Neuroscience at the University of Alberta. His research primarily focuses on the study of the evolution of aggressive behaviour, including investigation of aggression, communication and other social behaviour which takes place between animals with conflicting interests. Major tools for this research are mathematical modeling (principally game theory and genetic algorithms). He is also interested in how the process of sexual differentiation produces individual differences in social behaviour. Hurd conducted a study on digit ratios suggesting a positive correlation in males between aggressive tendency and the ratio of the lengths of the ring finger to his index finger. These gathered significant media attention, being reported on the BBC,〔(Article on The BBC website ) (Retrieved June 2007)〕 in the ''New York Times'',〔Nicholas Bakalar, "What else His Ring Finger Says" the New York Times, D6 (2005)〕 ''Discover Magazine'',〔(Discover magazine Article )〕 ''Scientific American Mind'',〔(Scientific American Mind article )〕 ''National Geographic''〔(Summary of National Geographic Article )〕 and on Jay Leno.〔(Research Overview with Reference to Jay Leno )〕 ==Research==
