Physical Anthropology at the Caribbean Primate Research Center: Past, Present, and Future

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Bones, Genetics, and Behavior of Rhesus Macaques

Part of the book series: Developments in Primatology: Progress and Prospects ((DIPR))

Abstract

Physical (biological) anthropology has played a central role in the development of the Caribbean Primate Research Center (CPRC) and has had a profound impact on its research perspectives. Likewise, research arising from the CPRC and its units has helped shape the field of physical anthropology, as we know it today. This latter influence has occurred through publications and the application of techniques and approaches applied or developed at the Center, and also through the mentoring and training efforts of researchers who transmit their professional experiences to future generations of physical anthropologists. In addition, although beyond the scope of this chapter, it is hoped that historians of science will find that the contained information provides the necessary foundation for investigating the degree to which CPRC research has had an impact on the development of theories, concepts, and methods central to physical anthropology.

Acknowledgments

I wish to express my gratitude to current and former CPRC staff members Janis González-Martínez, Terry Kensler, Matt Kessler, Edmundo Kraiselburd, Adaris Mas-Rivera, Elizabeth Missakian, Carlos Sariol, Jean Turnquist, and Steven Vessey, who kindly provided information for this chapter through access to publications and documents, through personal recollections, or both. I am grateful to Lucy I. Peña-Carro for improving the manuscript through her valuable comments and suggestions. Janis González-Martínez provided the photographs for Figures 1–3 and Figure 5, and Terry Kensler provided the photograph for Figure 4. Special thanks are due to Qian Wang for organizing the symposium to recognize the CPRC contributions to the development of physical anthropology, for being the motivating force behind this book, and for inviting me to be a participant in both endeavors. My participation in the symposium and the development of this chapter were made possible, in part, through funds provided by NIH grant P40 RR003640 to the CPRC and by the MSC, University of Puerto Rico.
