Julie Teichroeb is an Associate Professor in the Department of Anthropology at the University of Toronto, with research spanning evolutionary anthropology and primate behavioral ecology. Her work focuses on the interplay between social and ecological pressures in shaping group living, social organization, and decision-making in primates. She conducts fieldwork in Uganda, primarily studying vervet monkeys (Chlorocebus pygerythrus) and Rwenzori Angolan colobus (Colobus angolensis ruwenzorii), including the discovery of a unique three-tiered multilevel society in the latter.
- Ph.D. in Primatology, University of Calgary (2009)
- Post-doctoral research at McGill University, University of California Santa Cruz, and Duke University
Her research integrates experimental fieldwork, such as analyzing consensus costs during group movements and social foraging strategies in vervets, with comparative studies of colobus social structures. Recent publications explore topics like vocal repertoires, microhabitat use, and navigation heuristics across primate species, emphasizing the ecological and social drivers of behavior.
She supervises graduate students including T. Jean Arseneau-Robar, Tamara Kumpan, and Samantha Stead, and maintains a research lab at the University of Toronto Scarborough (SW 222). Her teaching includes undergraduate courses on primate behavior and conservation, as well as graduate primatology theory and methodology.
