Our plenary on Dec 16 of #ASABWinter2025 will be by Barbara Caspers. She’ll be presenting data on how individuals respond to chemical cues of family members, and how being related to the scent donour might change their response.
She’ll be sharing with us insights from both the lab and the wild!🥼 🏕️

We are interested in what capuchin monkeys can teach us about the evolution of sensorimotor intelligence and sensitive discriminative touch. Here, Luna demonstrates an excellent example of skilled hand use!
