More to come soon on how hormone profiles in male white-faced capuchins change during alpha male replacements (co-led w/ @meganpetersdorf.bsky.social)

So incredibly grateful to have received an IPS @ips-primatenews.bsky.social Research Grant and an ASP Conservation Small Grant to support my research on capuchin behavioral and physiological flexibility to extreme environmental conditions! 🙏✨ Exciting things to come✨

Living in a state with hardly any people in it definitely has its perks. Not having a Trader Joe’s within a reasonable day’s drive is not one of them. Now my suitcase looks like this.
