Yale Capuchin Cognition Laboratory

Welcome to the Capuchin Cognition Lab.  We work with a colony of captive capuchin monkeys.  Our monkeys are socially-housed in a single spacious enclosure equipped with a variety of naturalistic toys and branches.  Our lab is committed to providing our capuchins with a  comfortable and naturalistic environment, one in which they are able to establish natural social relationships.  All our capuchin studies involve only non-invasive behavioral tasks.
