Ph.D., Physical Anthropology, City University of New York, 2009 Dissertation Title: The influence of resource distribution on the social structure and travel patterns of wild hamadryas baboons (Papio hamadryas) in Filoha, Awash National Park, Ethiopia B.S., Biology & Society, Cornell University

研究领域

My primary area of research is the behavioral ecology of non-human primates. I am currently studying mantled howler monkeys and capuchin monkeys at La Suerte Biological Field Station in Costa Rica where I am investigating the relationship between life history and juvenile development. In collaboration with Dr. Marie-do Franco, we are examining the influence of habitat fragmentation on dispersal and genetic polymorphism in these species by collecting and analyzing DNA samples from individual monkeys. Students can participate in my research by traveling to Costa Rica and studying howler monkeys and capuchins in the wild, or working here on campus in the genetics lab. Students can also conduct studies using data I have previously collected on hamadryas baboons and lemurs.
