🐒📊 Thrilled to share a snippet of my dissertation at Spring Conference this Thursday! I'll be exploring the potential of long-term photo datasets in assessing fluctuating asymmetry in arboreal primates, with orangutans as my case study. 🌳🦧

Join us to hear from amazing researchers in the field: psgb.org/events/psgb-spring-me

Bonjour !

Excited to be joining Mastodon so here’s my 👋

Master's student examining the causes and implications of orangutan flange plasticity at the University of Cambridge 🎓

So, expect a lot of papers being posted about great ape behaviour, ecology and conservation 🦧

As someone who finds new ways to be anxious daily, you'll also see me tooting about:


Looking forward to meeting new people on this community !

Different is now out in paperback! Unbeholden to ideology, this book draws on De Waal's knowledge of chimpanzees and bonobos to reveal the primate roots of human behaviour, cutting across heated gender debates with nuance.

On December 26, 1985, American zoologist, primatologist, and anthropologist Dian Fossey was killed. She is best known for her extensive study of gorilla groups over a period of 18 years in they mountain forests of Rwanda. Her 1983 book, Gorillas in the Mist, combines her scientific study of the mountain gorilla at Karisoke Research Center with her own personal story.

Oh for sure, don't we all have days like this?! One of the best gifts I've ever gotten (a while ago now). For someone like me who has studied the behavior of primates --- not marmosets but baboons and great apes-- it's extra perfect.
