Himani Nautiyal

About

I am a Postdoctoral Fellow at Howard University, USA, and the Director of the Himalayan Langur Project. My work is highly interdisciplinary, integrating behavioral ecology, evolutionary biology, conservation science, and traditional ecological knowledge to understand how primates adapt to human-dominated landscapes. With over a decade of field research experience, I am deeply committed to advancing interdisciplinary approaches to promote human-wildlife coexistence.
