Stephanie is a 6th year PhD student in Evolutionary Anthropology at UNM. Her research seeks to understand variation in social bonds between and within species, how animals change their social strategies as the costs and benefits of relationships change across their life course, and what this can tell us about the origins of human social behaviour. Her dissertation research focuses on understanding the constraints and benefits of social relationships among wild female chimpanzees in Kibale National Park, Uganda. Previously, she studied relationships between adult males and infants in a species of wild colobus monkey living in Ghana.
Hosted by the UNM Department of Anthropology, the Alfonso Ortiz Center for Intercultural Studies, and the Latin American and Iberian Institute (LAII) the Department Colloquia Speaker Series will continue this semester. Talks from this years series are available on our You Tube for your viewing.
