Hit me with your tips at selling your research. I seem to suck at #grantwriting prose 🤦‍♀️ #primates #academicsky #science #🧪 #psychology #anthropology

Our new paper (with @biotay.bsky.social) is out and on the cover story of @currentbiology.bsky.social !!!! Veronika, a Carinthian mountain cow flexibly uses a “multi-purpose tool” to scratch herself. A video and more information will follow in the comments. www.cell.com/current-biol...

Fantastic to see my old village in #Sumatra using money I raised with friends and family to rebuild access to the village and support our community. 💚🫶 #Cyclonesenyar #Leuser #ArasNafal #Besitang #Cepatpulih

#Sumatra Donations to help can be made to PanEco.ch choosing flood disaster. All the people in these photos are my friends and people my family lived beside during my work with #orangutans. They have lost everything and I am doing all I can to raise awareness and funds for them. Every bit helps

Bluesky posts….

Hugely disappointed and frustrated at the response of high University admin to support my efforts to raise awareness and funds for our colleagues and friends in #Sumatra. Suggestions on practical strategies? 🤔 #Primates #PrimateSocietyGreatBritain #PSGB #AcademicSky #Anthropology #🧪 #Decolonise

#Sumatra isn’t just a research site for me — it’s part of my family, my history, my identity. The orangutan communities and forest-edge villages that welcomed me for decades are now facing devastating floods and landslides. Millions displaced. Huge death toll. Please share & donate: lnkd.in/eDbWqN6u

#Primates #AcademicSky #Science 🧪 Stop Press! #CommunicationsBiology have finally done right by our work and published the correct version of our article! Press Release here: warwick.ac.uk/news/pressre...

Our recent publication in #CommunicationsBiology was published in error before production actioned corrections 🤦‍♀️ I’ve now received 3 more proofs, still with errors!! For a #nature journal you expect a more competent production team. #GWYPF? #openaccess #publication-fees go where #AcademicSky #ffs

Pleased to see our work being shared 🙏🦧
