Wiley Prize

The developmental psychologist Professor Michael Tomasello (Wolfgang Köhler Primate Research Center, Leipzig) is the recipient of this year's Wiley Prize in Psychology, awarded by the British Academy in partnership with Wiley-Blackwell. The £5000 prize for 'lifetime achievement by an outstanding international scholar', is in recognition of Tomasello's work identifying the unique cognitive and cultural processes that distinguish humans from their nearest primate relatives, the great apes.
