Last night, I was officially sworn in as a Fellow at my Oxford College. Signing Wadham College’s Fellows’ Book today, the very same book that has been in use for over 400 years, was a true honour.

New paper from us: the endangered Yunnan snub-nosed monkey helps forests stay healthy and diverse. By breaking branches and opening the canopy, these rare primates promote plant growth and long-term ecosystem resilience

Excited to share that I’ve joined the University of Oxford @ox.ac.uk as Associate Professor of Evolutionary Anthropology and @wadhamcollege.bsky.social as a Tutorial Fellow in Human Sciences. Grateful for everyone who’s supported me on the journey so far. Looking forward to this new chapter!

13+ years at the University of Western Australia shaped me in so many ways. I grew as a researcher, teacher, and mentor, launched new projects, and saw my students thrive. Grateful for the people, opportunities, and lessons.

Revisiting the species that defined my PhD years. So good to see the black-and-white #snubnosedmonkeys again in the mountains of Yunnan!

International Centre for Biodiversity and Primate Conservation (ICBPC) leadership met this week in Dali/China to discuss progress on human–wildlife conflict research, student exchanges, outreach, and new partnerships in Rwanda and Kenya. Big steps ahead!

Just out in Biological Reviews!
My new paper highlights intergroup peace in primates: tolerance, affiliation, group mergers etc. We propose a new framework for understanding these interactions, with insights into the roots of human cooperation.

Close encounters of the friendly kind: pacific between‐group interactions in primates
While intergroup conflict features prominently in the behavioural ecology literature, its antonym, intergroup peace, has been a rather neglected phenomenon until recently. Neighbourly relations and a....

How does forest structure shape primate behavior? 🐒🌲 We studied black-and-white snub-nosed monkeys in Yunnan’s high-elevation forests using 10 years of observations, camera traps, and LiDAR (laser scanning of forest structure).

New paper out!
Here we show that mountain gorilla groups in different parts of Rwanda’s Volcanoes National Park eat strikingly different diets but the nutritional quality of their key foods is surprisingly similar.

Dietary Variability Among Mountain Gorilla Groups Across Volcanoes National Park, Rwanda
Dietary variability among mountain gorilla groups in Volcanoes National Park (VNP) was analyzed to understand how habitat differences influence diet and whether diet quality accounts for variations i...
