Do you want any slogans or taglines on your logo?

Logo for a social psychology research lab.

Who we are:

(Optional) Social perception @ Arkansas

Describe your company and organization and target audience.

I am a professor and researcher in Social Psychology - and I'm looking for a logo to represent my research lab. The lab is called the "Spark Lab" but it could also be SPARK Lab or SPArk Lab - it stands for Social Perception @ Arkansas (because I am faculty at the University of Arkansas).

I study how people perceive others, from strangers to their romantic partners. My research is very interdisciplinary, combining elements of psychology and biology. I often collect saliva samples to look at people's hormone levels - but that doesn't necessarily have to be in the logo! We're just very innovative with what we do - so the name "Spark Lab" also works because we try to spark people's interests in these endeavors.

The design should have the following:

I don't have a particular vision. Any references to psychology are of course good, same with things like the brain, research, looking at other people. My research often looks at potential evolutionary explanations for why people do what they do, so anything to do with cavemen is great but of course not a necessity. I was just thinking that -sparking- fire is often associated with cavemen.

This logo will be used for:

Print (business cards, letterheads, brochures etc.)
Online (website, online advertising, banner ads etc.)
Merchandise (mugs, t-shirts etc.)
Signs (including shops, billboards etc.)
Television/screen
