Andrew MacIntosh

I am a behavioral ecologist working mainly on the intersection between animal behavior and parasitism. My work has taken me to field sites in Central America, West Africa, East and Southeast Asia and even Antarctica, where I have studied mainly primates but also seabirds (penguins) and a few other animal species over the years. I also teach a variety of courses related to behavioral biology and am a strong proponent of critical thinking, analytical reasoning and the communication of science. Toward the latter, I host a podcast called The PrimateCast, which is dedicated to the study and conservation of primates and other wildlife around the world.
