Primate Behavior program director and faculty member, Dr. Lori K. Sheeran, has recently been awarded Central Washington University's 2018 Distinguished Professor for Research/Artistic Accomplishment and the UAAC’s Excellence in Advising Award. Many of the Primate Behavior students would agree: Dr. Sheeran is more than deserving of these awards. Congratulations to Dr. Sheeran and thank you for your continued committment to your students!
To quote from CWU annoucement: "Since joining the faculty at CWU in 2003, Sheeran has published (as sole author or coauthor) 18 peer-reviewed articles and 15 book reviews, encyclopedia entries, and contributed papers. Her field work on Tibetan macaques has made her one of the world’s foremost experts on that species. Additionally, Sheeran has undertaken extensive field research in China, spending some 40 months over the past 27 years in that country. Her work has garnered international recognition for the quality and credibility of her research, resulting in her being named associate editor of a prestigious scholarly journal (Scientific Reports)."
