Notably, her work has found links between longevity and social relationships within baboon groups, with cohesive group-living having benefits for surviving environmental stresses. Her most recent work focuses on the social dimensions of aging and how early-life adversity affects behavior, body size and immune function
178:. Her dissertation examined the maturation and dispersal of male baboons. She pursued postdoctoral research at the University of Chicago as an NIH Fellow, and was a Junior Fellow at Harvard University, and a Bunting Fellow at Radcliffe. She has been on the faculty at Duke since 1998.
