Episode 8: Chimpanzees, Self Medication and the Budongo Forest, with Elodie
Hello and welcome back to the Paperless Podcast.
Thank you so much for tuning in, I apprceiate it's been a while, but exams and coursework have kept me
busy. Thankfully, that's all behind me now, and I'm excited to bring you more episodes, starting with this latest release..
In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Elodie Freymann, a recent PhD graduate in Anthropology from the University of Oxford. Originally from New York, Elodie completed her incredible research on Chimpanzee Self-Medication in the Budongo Forest, Uganda. She investigated the self-medicative behaviours of the Sonso and Waibira chimpanzee communities, focusing on their use of natural resources for wound healing, snare removal, and hygiene.
Our conversation dives into her research, particularly her yet-to-be-released systematic behavioural review paper, which served as a foundation for her study. Elodie’s work provides valuable insights into the intricate behaviours
of chimpanzees and their implications for both primatology and conservation efforts.
As always, if you'd like to appear on the Paperless
Podcast, send me a DM or fill out the form in the linktree. Remember to share, like, and rate the podcast 5 stars—it really helps promote student research. Also, as Elodie is based in London, we recorded this episode remotely. I've done my best to minimize background noise, but a few sirens managed to sneak in.
Lastly, I'm eager to get more people involved in this project. If you're interested in volunteering for marketing, social media, editing, recording, or even co-hosting, reach out to me. It's a great opportunity to gain industry
experience.
Peace and Love,
Jake
