In one of those I love my job phases after an amazing trip to Lao PDR with @ird_fr to teach a parasitology workshop https://t.co/DPbk4T5V8D

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.

Now the dust has settled, I'm overjoyed to announce the completion of my PhD in Ecological and Evolutionary Biology. With it, I've accepted a postdoctoral position at the Institute of Vertebrae Biology, where I'll be focused on the bacteria & bacteriophages in primate guts🦍🦠🧬

[Bethan Mason @Mason_Bethan]

Excited, and nervous, to share that everything is now set for my PhD defence next week🎉 Join us online, or in person if in Brno, to learn about my last five years of primate parasitology research with @ivb_cas & @BotZool_MUNI ➡️

We genetically describe strongylid #nematode communities of six South-East & East Asian #NonHumanPrimates, revealing drastically lower species diversity compared to their African counterparts. We also identify potentially cryptic lineages & explore host-parasite co-evolution🐒2/2

[Bethan Mason @Mason_Bethan]

Thrilled to share another PhD chapter, officially published today in @CambridgeUP's Parasitology🥳 Very grateful for the research stay with @andrewjjmac & the many collaborators which enabled us to investigate the strongylids of multiple Asian primates https://t.co/bf9kksQilV 1/2

[Bethan Mason @Mason_Bethan]

@andrewjjmac A huge update - congratulations! And wishing smooth sailing with the transition, to both you and your family☺️

Climate change has killed at least four million people. I wrote this because I felt like I was the only one who had noticed. If you ever read and share anything I've written, I hope it'll be this short piece, out today in @NatureMedicine

[Osprey Leadership Foundation @ospreylf]

On Saturday we had an inspiring day with our Evolving Conservation Leaders and some of the mentors who support the programme. Our morning discussions, led by Becky Park, centred around the need for resilience when you are working in conservation.

[Bethan Mason @Mason_Bethan]

Finally home after the most wonderful congress in Kuching, Borneo. Thank you to @IPS_PrimateNews & @primatesmsia for the beautiful programme, people and place✨

[Auke-Florian @AukeFlorian]

Bird nests made from anti-bird spikes! 🤯 Even for me as a nest researcher, these are the craziest bird nests I've ever seen. Today my paper came out on this rebellious behaviour. And it's like telling a joke...

A thread. 🧵

[Conservation Leadership Programme (CLP) @CLPawards]

Are you an emerging conservationist with an exciting project that needs financial support?🌱

CLP invites teams of early-career conservationists to apply for a 2024 Team Award by 10 October, 2023.

📢 We are seeking a research assistant (small stipend provided) for collecting behavioral data on sanctuary-housed chimpanzees in Uganda.

Retweets appreciated.

🚨NEW PAPER ALERT🚨Along with the fantastic @Eric_shimiye and the @SavingGorillas team we took a deep dive into female mountain gorillas' mating patterns demonstrating the variability of the mountain gorillas mating system. https://t.co/aPacRVgsp5
