DESCRIPTION:Dimensions of the social environment consistently emerge as som
 e of the strongest predictors of fitness across a broad range of social ma
 mmals. This includes taxa spanning hundreds of millions of years of indepe
 ndent evolution and encompassing a highly diverse set of social relationsh
 ip types. How can we understand the selective pressures that shape this di
 versity? Comparing social structures across species with different ecologi
 es and kinship structures offers a promising route. However\, the complexi
 ty of social behavioural data and variations in data collection methods po
 se significant challenges to such comparative analyses\, mainly due to a l
 ack of comparable social relationship data and the statistical methods to 
 analyse them. In this talk\, I will present MacaqueNet\, a collaborative c
 ross-species database of standardized macaque social behaviour data. I wil
 l discuss the challenges encountered in building and analysing this datase
 t and share insights gained from addressing them. Additionally\, I will di
 scuss my research combining comparative approaches and detailed longitudin
 al data to further our understanding of how kinship and environmental pres
 sures shape social structure.\nVortragende(r): Delphine de Moor
