Thanks so much for joining us for our RTG_Curiosity kick-off event, Sofia! It was great having you here and hearing your thoughts on how to quantify curiosity in animals!

[sofia forss @ForssSofia]

Had a fantastic inspiring time in Göttingen discussing many Curiosities and disciplinary approaches. Thank You for the invite to the RTG @nivedita_mani @DPZ_eu @m_j_gruber @FitzyLily and many many more 🙏🏻

@gerrygcarter @danielj_redhead @rlmcelreath Thanks, Gerry, we are very happy to hear you like it! This paper is truly @KawamBen ‘s achievement

[Primate Behavioral Ecology @primbehavecol.bsky.soc @PrimBehavEcol]

Congrats @KawamBen ! Happy to see this out as preprint! Part of the @dfg_public RTG 2070 Understanding Social Relationships @DPZ_eu @uniGoettingen

[Ben Kawam @KawamBen]

My first PhD chapter is out as a preprint! Together with @danielj_redhead, @rlmcelreath, and @PrimBehavEcol, we propose a general analytical framework to study the causes of animal social network structure, using Bayesian & Causal modelling.

Join us on zoom to discuss issues surrounding the colonial past & present of primatology November 30th 18:00 (find link here later). Jo Setchell https://t.co/QJWMyzJcAP will kick off with a presentation and you decide where it will go from there.

[DZG section Behavioural Biology @DZG_Behaviour]

Next up is @JamesStranks (@PrimBehavEcol and @DPZ_eu), talking about the relationship between glucocorticoids, dominance ranks, and social dynamics in male macaques.

Higher rank = higher cortisol levels, but increasing strengths of top bond = lower cortisol levels.
