"Much of the research presented in my dissertation would not have been possible without support from members of the International Center for Biodiversity and Primate Conservation (ICBPC), and I am eternally grateful for their support. The ICBPC provided me with invaluable resources including access to field sites in China and long-term datasets, and a wealth of expertise from leading scientists in the field. Their collaborative environment fostered critical discussions and feedback that significantly enhanced the quality of my research. The mentorship and encouragement I received from the ICBPC community were instrumental in guiding me through the challenges of my research journey and graduate school career. I am deeply appreciative of their unwavering commitment to advancing research on the behavioral ecology of snub-nosed monkeys, and I look forward to contributing to their mission in my future endeavors." -- Dr. Jacob Kraus, University of Wisconsin-Madison
