McLennan and Hill's 2013 chapter in Ethics in the Field should be required reading for all primatologists, especially those in training.

1/5 Once again I've pissed off @Evolutionistrue Dr. Coyne, as always I'd be more than glad to do a zoom or live debate about these issues. Your definition of sex singly as gamete differences (size, motility) ignores many of my points and much of the literature.

[Jeffrey V. Peterson @primatologeist]

Excited to see our new open access paper out! We look at individual variation in "robbing and bartering" with respect to dominance rank, and establish metrics for understanding R&B propensity in other contexts. With @Anthrofuentes and I Nengah Wandia

"Cohort dominance rank and “robbing and bartering” among subadult male long‑tailed macaques at Uluwatu, Bali" just out at Nature Scientific Reports... from @primatologeist @Anthrofuentes (me) and I. Nengah Wandia ...(bonus: open access!!!) https://t.co/w9ALx4h3IC

Looking forward to this workshop on Friday! Excited to discuss applications of social network analysis to the human-macaque interface!

Not me in World Market explaining to the kids we can’t get these because they don’t have the y-5 cusp pattern

[Jeffrey V. Peterson @primatologeist]

@MarcKissel Sounds like an awesome class!

[Jeffrey V. Peterson @primatologeist]

@Anthrofuentes Thanks Agustin!

[Jeffrey V. Peterson @primatologeist]

Excited to see my review of Gregory Bateson's 'Steps to an Ecology of Mind' is out! Biological Anthropologists (& beyond), if you've never read this book, or started and then stopped, please give my review a read & consider giving 'Steps' another chance!

[Agustín Fuentes @Anthrofuentes]

oh, and while I've not read the book yet (not out yet), the interview makes sound like it touches on much I covered in my latest book "Why We Believe". Any interest in chatting @nytimes and/or Prof. Pinker? https://t.co/W0iAQgVHAx

[Jeffrey V. Peterson @primatologeist]

This is actually a good opportunity to plug the IDEAS program for evolutionary anthropologists:

Tired of seeing this disingenuous attack on Fuentes' work. If the authors are truly concerned with increasing diversity in science they could instead take note from the multitude of initiatives and programs (and people!) Fuentes has spearheaded and supported throughout his career

[Agustín Fuentes @Anthrofuentes]

1/3 See letter by group of distinguished scientists fearing my Descent editorial will "damage prospects for an expanded, more gender and ethnically diverse new generation of evolutionary scientists" https://t.co/BlMSXyD0My

"I am here to dispel those myths and misconceptions" Powerful and important essay by .@CaraOcobock -- working it into my current summer courses asap

[Agustín Fuentes @Anthrofuentes]

Re: my recent @ScienceMagazine editorial: I do not call for censorship, "canceling" or anything like that. I call for more engagement and more reading of, and learning from, "Descent." The anger from folks who don't even bother to read the 720 word editorial is alarming.
