We are currently testing highly underrated and understudied colobus monkeys for @manyprimates.bsky.social at Zoo Krefeld.
It's a start - but ManyPrimates needs more colobines (and gibbons) for fair representation!

Gwenolé, 1st-year master student, just finished his internship collecting data for the @manyprimates.bsky.social inference by exclusion project with me at @ethos-research.bsky.social.

It was great working with him, and I wish him all the best in his future endeavours.

If anyone has questions about @manyprimates.bsky.social or want to know how to get involved, I will be at #EHBEA2025 for the rest of the week 🐒🦍🦧
#EHBEA2025 kicks off with pre-conference panel on large scale collaborations

Great to hear about some of the often unspoken aspects of large-scale collaborations

Very happy to be representing @manyprimates.bsky.social. Join us to discuss all things Big Team Science!
🚨 Exciting announcement for #EHBEA2025🚨

We will have a FREE pre-conference panel on Big Team Science! Curious about Big Team Science? 🤔

How initiatives like ManyLabs, ManyPrimates, and ManyBabies come together? This panel aims to demystify large-scale collaborations!

Motivated by all these other animal-centric starter packs to fill in another niche: comparative cognition!

Let me know if you want to be added, or know someone who ought to be in the pack. Would be great to have representation from loads of species and places.

What about the brain best predicts short-term memory in primates?

In our new paper, we found that whole brain size - not specific regions or EQ - is the best predictor. This suggests domain-general rather than specific cognitive foundations.

Brain size variability in primates has been attributed to various domain-specific socio-ecological factors. A recently published large-scale study of short-term memory abilities in 41 primate species ...

Data collection for MP2 is still ongoing! In MP2, we assess #primates’ ability to resist the temptation of an immediate reward in order to receive a larger or better reward later on. More info here: manyprimates.github.io/mp2/ Interested in participating? Get in touch with us!
