Primates chunk simultaneously-presented memoranda

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2022
Though much research has characterized both the behavior and electrophysiology of spatial memory for single targets in non-human primates, we know much less about how multiple memoranda are handled. Multiple memoranda may interact in the brain, affecting

Simplified Communities of Seed-Dispersers Limit the Composition and Flow of Seeds in Edge Habitats

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Edge effects, driven by human modification of landscapes, can have critical impacts on ecological processes such as species interactions, with cascading impacts on biodiversity as a whole. Characterizing how edges affect vital biotic interactions such as
