My research interest is primate social cognition. During my PhD, I focused on the study of cognitive abilities as Theory of Mind precursors of our closest relatives, nonhuman primates, to better understand the evolution of cognition. I am now working on the origins of culture and the effects of social network on social transmission in wild vervet monkeys as a post-doctoral fellow attached to the University of Lausanne and the University of Zürich.
