BREAKING: Trump heading from Marine One as he travels to his Bedminster golf course on the Taxpayers’ dime.
This trip will cost us $2.9 million, which could have been used by USAID to provide 11 million HIV antiretroviral therapy doses to people in need.

A little over 25 years ago we watched as Tenkere's mother gave birth to her in Kanyawara. She stayed in the community and has now had four infants of her own, including young Tai. Photo by Martin Muller.

📣 PUBLISHED OPEN ACCESS 📣 “Multidimensional primate niche space sheds light on interspecific competition in primate evolution” in @CommsBio by Dr Laura Holstein and colleagues
👉 Read more about it: arch.cam.ac.uk/news/multidim…
ALT New, multidimensional primate niches provide insights into the role of competition in primate lives and evolution
ALT A team of researchers at the University of Cambridge and University of Zurich calculated niches of 191 primate species in a seven-dimensional space.
ALT They used this to show how primate niches evolved and calculate which groups of primates experience the highest levels of between-species competition.
