This $421,587 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports a longitudinal study on the development of social integration in a non-human primate species. The research, led by the Research Foundation of the City University of New York (RFCUNY) at Hunter College, examines how early rearing environments and maternal social networks impact the origins and evolution of social bonds and an individual's position...
This National Science Foundation project grant of $417,856 supports research on understanding variation in primate aging patterns through March 2026. Funded under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), the award to Stony Brook University will couple a longitudinal dataset on over 100 wild non-human primates with physiology, medical imaging, molecular, and comparative methods. The research aims to identify the trajectory of aging across the life course regarding...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) Project Grant award of $160,000 supports a 2-year postdoctoral research fellowship examining social interdependence in primate species. The research, conducted by an early-career scientist under the sponsorship of Drs. Joan Silk and Jason Kamilar at Arizona State University, aims to: Quantify how kinship, social status, and reproductive interests shape social relationships within and across primate...

Researchers will...

This $100,000 National Science Foundation project grant through the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) funds research into the coloration of primate infants and its social and ecological functions. New York University will lead a collaborative effort to create a standardized image database of primate species alongside life history and social data. Researchers will objectively measure the color of hundreds of primate infants from over 80 species throughout development using calibrated photography. Comparative analysis will test hypotheses for how infant color relates to species behavior, ecology, and social systems. The project also includes behavioral experiments to assess how mothers, fathers, and non-fathers respond to differently colored infants. This research aims to further understanding of why some primate infants are conspicuously colored and the role of infants in primate social systems. The award period is from November 1, 2022 to October 31, 2026.
