My name is Violette, I am French and I was the Lab’s research assistant in Taboga. I graduated in 2022 with a Master’s degree in Human Physiology but after some time studying humans, I decided monkeys were much cooler ! I joined  Capuchinos de Taboga in August 2023 for a one year-commitment as a field and lab assistant. I was in charge of running hormonal dosage from fecal samples at the on-site lab. I mainly ran immunoassay to dose sexual and stress hormones.
