PhD student @DurhamPsych, looking at multimodal communication development in chimpanzees 😃🤌🗣

[Emma Doherty @emma_doherty27]

My first PhD chapter is officially published! 🙌 We examined the effect of age and context on multimodal communication in immature chimpanzees 🗣🤌😀.

Grateful to my supervisors @zannaclay and Marina for all their support and guidance. Hopefully more papers to follow soon!

[Zanna Clay @zannaclay]

We have a new paper out on the development of multimodal communication in chimpanzees!

Out #openaccess in #AnimalBehaviour, led by the v talented @emma_doherty27 @DurhamPsych

Our @DurhamPsych research has found that development of communication in #chimpanzees echoes that of human infants. Find out more about how our closest living relatives could help us better understand how human communication evolved 👉 https://t.co/nwEBygoYsX

Emma Doherty from Durham University has spoken about recent research into Chimpanzee's intelligence. 🐒

[Durham University @durham_uni]

Young #chimpanzees combine different gestures, vocalisations & facial expressions in a way which echoes development of communication in human infants according to new research from @DurhamPsych 🐒

Cool opportunity with some cool people to gain fieldwork experience with chimpanzees! 👀

Massive congratulations to *Dr* @jakebrooker on passing his PhD viva today! Making the C4D lab very proud 👏 👏👏

Pls RT. We’ve co-drafted a letter with the Harvard Animal Law & Policy Clinic to the NIH to ask them to urgently review protocols & ethical justifications for the ongoing invasive macaque research at Harvard 1/2

@AnnieRothNews There's a nice book called 'Nature's nether regions' by Menno Schilthuizen that's got some great examples! 👀

[Happy Researchers @hapyresearchers]

Revising a paper is more about spending hours and hours to find a reference to support what you know is absolutely true but you just need someone to agree with you 😂😂

WRITING ADVICE:
If you’re having a hard time getting started on a project, simply start a second project, get it to a critical point, then use the original project to procrastinate work on the second now more stressful project. Repeat as needed until the universe disintegrates

This little B really does determine if it's a good day or a throw your laptop out a window day 😃🙃 #pleaseconverge

Finally giving twitter a go after a great few days @EFP_GfP2022! Feeling inspired after having the opportunity at last to have real life conversations & hear about all the amazing research happening outside the four walls of my home- office (aka kitchen table) 🙌 #EFP_GfP2022
