Zsófia Csajbók pursued her studies in clinical and health psychology at Eötvös Loránd University in Budapest before moving to Prague, where she obtained her Ph.D. in theoretical and evolutionary biology from Charles University. Her research focuses on human mate choice, mate preferences, and various aspects of romantic relationship formation and rejection, all from an evolutionary perspective. As a devoted statistical analyst, Zsófia had the chance to participate in diverse projects beyond her primary field, aiding in research on aging related cognitive decline and depressive symptoms.
Currently, she is an Assistant Professor at the Faculty of Humanities, Charles University, where she also leads a significant project funded by the Czech Science Foundation (GAČR). This project delves into the emotional contagion effect within romantic relationships, the longitudinal trajectories of depressive symptoms, and how parental depression affects their offspring. Beyond her academic passions, Zsófia enjoys traveling and exploring culinary arts in her leisure time.
