A Longitudinal Study of the Development of Multimodal Combinational Communication in Chimpanzees
REFNo: NS834ES
To understand and explore the ontogeny of combinational communication in chimpanzees (Pan Troglodytes) to provide insights to the evolution of human language.
To understand how non-adult chimpanzees develop the multimodal combinatorial communication that has been seen in adult chimpanzees.

Expanding laparoscopic simulation in Uganda
REFNo: HS4783ES
Aim 3: Create, conduct, and review a hybrid laparoscopic surgery training course for practicing Ugandan surgeons.,Aim 2: Create a low-cost, high-fidelity laparoscopy training model. We will utilize the Duke-Muk educational partnership that forms the foundation for the Shipping Container MakerSpaces to develop and build a laparoscopic training model, demonstrating the effectiveness of the previously developed infrastructure for biomedical engineering.,Aim 1: Assess level of baseline laparoscopic training and experience for Ugandan surgeons. We will survey the members of the Ugandan Surgical Society regarding their needs, expectations, and willingness to participate in a laparoscopic training course,We will assess the needs of local surgeons and trainees about their needs and experiences in laparoscopy to develop a low-cost box-trainer that is manufactured locally. This box will enable LMIC surgeons to develop the fundamental skills necessary to perform laparoscopy and improve surgical patient outcomes. The developed box trainer will form the foundation of a hybrid laparoscopy training course to be facilitated by local surgical and medical educators.,

Establishing a Long-Term Behavioral and Ecological Monitoring Research Program in Queen Elizabeth Conservation Area
REFNo: NS841ES
This research aims to explore several critical issues affecting savannah ecosystems:
1. Impact of Macro and Microplastics on Wildlife: Plastic pollution is an emerging threat to wildlife health in savannah ecosystems. Both macroplastics and microplastics can cause physical harm, ingestion issues, and toxicological effects in wildlife, disrupting health, reproduction, and survival rates.
2. Sources of Plastic Pollution: Identifying and understanding the critical sources of plastic pollution within and between communities is essential. This includes examining local waste management practices, the role of tourism, and community awareness and behaviors regarding plastic use and disposal.
3. Animal Movement Patterns and Ecological Impact: Changes in animal movement patterns, driven by factors such as habitat fragmentation, climate change, and human disturbances, can significantly affect feeding ecology and population dynamics of predators, prey, and other fauna. Understanding these changes is vital for predicting ecological outcomes and managing wildlife populations.
4. Bush Encroachment Patterns and Drivers: Bush encroachment, the process where woody plants invade grassland areas, alters the structure and function of savannah ecosystems. This study will characterize the patterns of bush encroachment and investigate the factors driving these changes in different zones of the park, such as fire regimes, grazing pressure, and climatic variables.
5. Disease Outbreaks and Pathogen Evolution: Disease outbreaks, including anthrax, pose a significant threat to wildlife populations. This research will focus on understanding the patterns of these outbreaks, how pathogens are evolving, and predicting future impacts on wildlife health and ecosystem stability.
