📣ATTENTION!!! Fully funded PhD position on wild bonobos in the Comparative Human & Ape Technology (CHAT) Project Swiss National Science Foundation! Come join the Ape Behaviour & Ecology Group University of Zurich!!! Further info attached😃Please RT! EFP-Primatology PSGB Students AABA IPS Primate



Yesterday, Prince Valé has defended successfully his doctoral thesis on feeding ecology and energy balance in wild chimpanzees at Université Houphouët Boigny in Abidjan. He collected his data with the chimps Taï Chimpanzee Project in collaboration with CSRS Côte d'Ivoire. Congrats Dr. Valé




Want to work with Taï Chimpanzee Project ? We still look for a camp manager starting July 1, 2022 for 2 years! Speak French and English ? Like managing 30+ people in a primary rain forest ? Potentially creating a PhD project ? Apply NOW bit.ly/3BJG0cu #Emploi via @EmploiCnrs

Behaviour 2023 in Bielefeld, Taï Chimpanzee Project is joining with 3 talks: Mathieu Malherbe (Tue 11:40) in the Cognition session talking about functional development of stick tool manipulation skills in Taï chimpanzees.

The next talk Behaviour 2023 in Bielefeld on WED 16:20 in the Cooperation and Conflict Symposium by Roman Wittig on the link about outgroup conflict and ingroup cooperation.

and last but not least Behaviour 2023 on FRI 17:40, Cedric Girard-Buttoz will present in the Vocal Complexity Symposium on the information content of wild chimpanzee sequences.


Happy to share that my first paper as a PhD student has now been published in PLOS Biology ! Go and have a look here if you are interested in the development of tool use skills: journals.plos.org/plosbiology/ar…

High school for chimps? A study of #StickTool use in wild #chimpanzees by Math Malherbe &co Taï Chimpanzee Project reveals a prolonged time for cognitive assimilation, suggesting retention of #learning capacities into adulthood #PLOSBiology plos.io/4b6xW6h



Handling this beautiful paper was the final task that our much-missed ed board member Frans de Waal did for PLOS Biology. Great science from Math Malherbe and colleagues, topped off with a lovely photo by Liran Samuni and hand-drawings (of hands!) by Oscar Nodé-Langlois
