Gillian King-Bailey

I am an Anthropology Doctoral Candidate at Tulane University in Dr. Katharine Jack's lab. I specialize in primatology and my research investigates the relationship between behavior, hormone levels, and reproductive success. I am currently teaching and writing my dissertation on the behavioral and ecological correlates of androgens and glucocorticoids in white-faced capuchins in Sector Santa Rosa of the Area de Conservación de Guanacaste in Costa Rica. 

 

Please have a look around my site and if you have any questions or comments I welcome you to contact me.
