We received this dispatch from a @uop-ccep.bsky.social @uopcidd.bsky.social BTSCON viewing party. Look at all the Big Team Science FUN they're having! WE LOVE TO SEE IT!! (👀 @dremalt.bsky.social @manyprimates.bsky.social)

A group of 10 smiling people pose for a photo in front of a large monitor. On the monitor, you can see the title slide from Drew Altschul's Big Team Science Conference talk about ManyPrimates. Everyone is having a GREAT TIME!

We are currently testing highly underrated and understudied colobus monkeys for @manyprimates.bsky.social at Zoo Krefeld. It's a start - but ManyPrimates needs more colobines (and gibbons) for fair representation!

Gwenolé, 1st-year master student, just finished his internship collecting data for the @manyprimates.bsky.social inference by exclusion project with me at @ethos-research.bsky.social. It was great working with him, and I wish him all the best in his future endeavours.

Motivated by all these other animal-centric starter packs to fill in another niche: comparative cognition! go.bsky.app/5yu5SDr Let me know if you want to be added, or know someone who ought to be in the pack. Would be great to have representation from loads of species and places.

What about the brain best predicts short-term memory in primates? In our new paper, we found that whole brain size - not specific regions or EQ - is the best predictor. This suggests domain-general rather than specific cognitive foundations. royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/...

Data collection for MP2 is still ongoing! In MP2, we assess #primates’ ability to resist the temptation of an immediate reward in order to receive a larger or better reward later on. More info here: manyprimates.github.io/mp2/ Interested in participating? Get in touch with us!
