Primates in Perspective, Redux

Dr. Rebecca Stumpf of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and Dr. Christina Campbell at California State University at Northridge (both assistant professors!) are two members of a great team of editors (including Agustin Fuentes, Katherine C. MacKinnon, and Simon Bearder) that has produced a brand spankin' new second edition of Primates in Perspective. If you meet any of them, be sure to get them to tell you how much fun editing a book is.

Dr. Kate Clancy, another BANDIT member with a great blog

Kate Clancy is an assistant professor (second year on the tenure track) of anthropology at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. This is a truly fantastic department, with at last count TEN biological anthropology faculty. (Let that sink in. Awesome, right?) In addition to this tremendous disciplinary breadth, these faculty members are also just plain great people. Kate (with Dr. Rebecca Stumpf) heads the Laboratory for Evolutionary Endocrinology, where she and her students are exploring really fascinating work on inflammation and reproductive function. Kate is producing a thoughtful, engaging, and personable blog that I think will be of interest to BANDIT members. Check it out!
