1/6 Robots are more and more socially accepted by human societies, but what about animal-robot interactions? Can a robot be tolerated by wild animals? We introduced an ANYmal robot to a group of 37 wild vervet monkeys in South Africa over 6 days for about 10h #AnimBehav2023

Honoured to be awarded a research grant (as a PI!) from the #FyssenFoundation to investigate risk-taking in wild vervet monkeys at @InkawuP ! Stay tuned!

High school students acted as a reviewer for my paper in the open access DECODER journal! Good opportunity to make our research accessible to everyone! journal-decoder.fr/2022/04/29/153…

Best office ever! #fieldwork #southafrica

I'll be happy to present some social transmission experiments I've done in vervet monkeys at the next seminar of @primobevolab ! x.com/primhevo/statu…

Our new paper about payoff and rank-biased social learning in vervet monkeys is out today! With @mabiabc @bjjbarrett & E. van de Waal from @InkawuP @DEE_UNIL @unil nature.com/articles/s4159…

does a novel feeding habit spread in wild monkeys? We combined a field experiment with Bayesian dynamic learning models and showed that monkeys used the highest payoff processing technique and displayed by higher ranked demonstrators. #AnimBehav2021 1.How
