New comment piece published by Lab members and colleagues: Chimpanzee culture in context

Lab Head Susana Carvalho has co-authored a new comment piece with Kathelijne Koops and colleagues. The publication in Physics of Life Reviews, titled 'Chimpanzee culture in context', is a comment on “Blind alleys and fruitful pathways in the comparative study of cultural cognition“ by Andrew Whiten. The comment piece presents thoughts on some of the issues raised by Whiten, addresses additional concerns, and suggests future directions for studying chimpanzee cultural cognition and reconciling captive and wild studies.
