Heather Heying is an evolutionary biologist. She earned her PhD in Biology from U. of Michigan, where she earned the university’s top honor for her dissertation on the evolution of social systems and sexual selection, and has a B.A. in Anthropology. Recently a visiting fellow at Princeton, before that Heather was a professor at The Evergreen State College for 15 years, where she architected curriculum that prioritized the scientific method, and pushed students to go beyond certainty and comfort, in part through exploring remote sites in the neotropics. That ended in 2017 when she and her husband, Bret Weinstein, resigned in the wake of violent protests on campus. With Bret, she now hosts a popular weekly livestream on the DarkHorse podcast. Heather has been invited to write and speak on education; the evolution of sex, relationship and consciousness; wild nature; the philosophy of science; and more at venues including the U.S. Department of Justice, Oxford, the New York Times, and Real Time with Bill Maher.
