In the context of animal experiments, it is necessary to estimate the stress / burden on the animal in each individual test section. The assessment of the stress of wild animals during capture or removal from the nest is often subject of discussion. In order to be able to counter the sometimes ... [mehr]

Time- and self- management with Sabine Lerch

Why - Objectives Time can not be bought, stored or stopped. Every second that passes is gone forever. In this respect it should be seen as the most valuable of all resources and the only way to maximise its potential is to use it well. What “well” means in this context is a highly individual thing ... [mehr]

Studying singing primates is a fascinating scientific journey between aspects that remain consistent across phylogenetically distant species and others that are strikingly different between species whose evolutionary divergence is much more recent. With my collaborators, we are trying to add new ... [mehr]

Animating ancient trade routes through primate lifeways

Workshop Primates
The ancient trade of nonhuman primates is a topic at the intersection of Near Eastern archaeology, Egyptology, and primatology––three fields that rarely interact due to the nature of our disciplinary silos. Yet, there is great promise to working across these subdivisions of anthropology, of merging ... [mehr]
