In the midst of horrible warfare around the world, we try not to forget our closest living relatives and their human-induced predicament. In particular, we rescue chimpanzees in need and provide a natural home for them in the woodlands at the Chimfunshi Wildlife Orphanage Trust.

We are looking for two PhD students interested in cumulative culture in great apes. By using observational, experimental and computational methods, we aim to test whether precursors of human culture are present in chimpanzees and bonobos. https://t.co/33C16VwPNc

It has been argued that human culture rests on a unique ability to learn from others more than we could possibly learn alone in a lifetime. Two recent studies published in @Nature and @NatureHumBehav show that we share this ability with bumblebees and chimpanzees.

#chimpanzees show group differences in their #prosocial behavior- very happy to share a paper with @ejcvanleeuwen, S. Kaufhold, C. Dubois, S. Schütte, J. Call and D. Haun - and super excited that our picture of Gonzaga from @Chimfunshi made it on the cover https://t.co/0IygdZGBZ8

https://t.co/QC0rrBNHmf I know this is cliché, but I'm EXTREMELY proud to share my first first-author paper on group variation in cofeeding tolerance in #chimpanzees - I joined this project in 2014 and it has accompanied me through my entire PhD - so happy with the result😊🐵

Our thanatology paper is now out - showing that chimpanzees console a bereaved mother. So very proud of @GoldsboroughZoe for her massive efforts. And thanks @ejcvanleeuwen! See link below.
Excited to share the publication of our paper on a topic close to my heart: chimpanzees' response to a bereaved mother after the loss of her infant! Available for everyone to read for free at
