Alexa is .a PhD candidate in Biological Anthropology at Yale University, advised by Dr. David Watts. I study the relationships between nutritional ecology, climate change and fitness in a population of wild white-faced capuchin monkeys (Cebus capucinus). Particularly interested in how climate change impacts nutritional landscapes and how this, in turn, alters nutrient availability and fitness outcomes.
