| Research Abstract |
In order to explore social recognition in non-humanprimates, I have conducted three studies. Through those studies, I found that
1) the perceptual system for face recognition in chimpanzees is tuned by both initial exposure as well as life-long exposure to faces
2) Rhesus macaques formed cross-modal individual recognition and recall visual image of the individual upon hearing its voice, and
and 3) Chimpanzees recognize social rank of familiar individuals and more interestingly they mapped the rank information onto social domain.
