🎉 Thrilled to share that I successfully defended my dissertation a week ago! After a year of chasing feisty capuchins through the forests of Costa Rica, it’s official — PhD complete! 🐒📚 Grateful for all the support along the way from @mebenitez.bsky.social, committee, friends, and family. #PhDone

As I work though my oxytocin data, this video of Milagro grooming Mosquito brings me back to the field. Does grooming relate to measurable increases in #oxytocin in wild white-faced #capuchins, as seen in other primates? Stay tuned... #Primatology #SocialBehavior #fieldwork 🐒🧪🥾
