Past and other research activities
In collaboration with other researchers, I conducted or participated in studies on:
- Aggressive and post-conflict interactions in white-faced capuchin monkeys [REPORT]
- Distributed leadership during group movements in white-faced capuchin monkeys [REPORT 1] [REPORT 2] [REPORT 3]
- Social dynamics of fur rubbing behavior in white-faced and brown capuchin monkeys [REPORT]
- Social learning of leaf-swallowing behavior (i.e., a form of self-medication) in chimpanzees [REPORT]
- The ontogeny of foraging competence in brown capuchin monkeys [REPORT]
I also participated in a primate conservation project:
A survey of the population density and abundance of ebony leaf monkeys in West Bali National Park, Indonesia [REPORT].
