Primatologist, conservationist, evolutionary anthropologist at UArizona. I study the hormones, behavior, and ecology of wild primates. Currently researching cooperative infant care and maternal-child health in lemurs in Madagascar & people in Tucson, AZ.
3/6 We studied lemurs in Ranomafana Natl Park, Madagascar rainforest for 2 yrs @CentreValBio. We collected ~2700h behavioral data & fecal samples for hormone analysis. We have data during fetal & infant development. Samples analyzed @LEEPUArizona. The team was BIG

1/6 Are hormones involved in facultative paternal care?
Monogamous red-bellied #lemurs live in prs. Dads are in contact w infants as much as men in US & some months more than moms. But there's LOTS of variation! Dads provide 0-37% of all care across development.
