About Dr. Kane

Erin Kane is an ecologist and anthropologist whose work focuses broadly on primate feeding ecology and physiology. Her research examines the impacts of resource distribution on primate socioecology, life history, and community ecology by synthesizing observational research on wild primates with research on physiology and morphology. She is currently a postdoctoral research associate working with Dr. Cheryl Knott on a project examining life history influences on orangutan feeding ecology in Gunung Palung National Park, West Kalimantan, Indonesia.
