In her research she aims to lay bare the development path that is constructed, step by step, out of the continuous and dynamic interaction between brain, genes and environment. Author of, a.o., 'Delusions of Gender. How our mind, society and neurosexism create differences'.

Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak (Columbia University) are 19th- and 20th-century literature, Marxism, feminism, globalization, deconstruction and poststructuralism. Her work offers a rigorous and unflinching scrutiny of the so-called truths of Western capitalist discourse and what it marginalises or leaves behind. Spivak is most of all associated with postcolonialism. Throughout her oeuvre she has dealt with cultural imperialism and its creation of the subaltern, something which she pursues with a rare consistency, a strong sense of critique for political or institutional appropriation and a keen eye for the irreducible hybridity of language.
