Later this month researchers and students, led by Susana Carvalho, will be heading to Gorongosa National Park in Mozambique for the third season of the Paleo-Primate Project and the first Oxford-Gorongosa Paleo-Primate Field School. In total, 18 students and 22 researchers are getting ready for the 2018 season. Students will participate in the only Field School that provides interdisciplinary training in primatology, ecology, paleoanthropology, archaeology and speleology, and they will be visted by Tetsuro Matsuzawa, Richard Wrangham and Robert Anemone.
