Alexa Duchesneau: White-faced Capuchin (Cebus capucinus) Nutritional Goals and Fitness in a Changing Climate
- Sponsored by:
- Biology and Anthropology
Alexa Duchesneau will deliver the final talk in the Anthropology J-term Speaker Series. Optimal nutrition is important to the survival and reproduction of many species, especially those requiring: a) long periods of development and b) those living in unpredictable nutritional landscapes. The white-faced capuchins (Cebus capucinus) of Costa Rica, fulfill both of these criteria and are useful models for investigating the relationships between nutrition, life history and climate change.
