Evolutionary Anthropology Research Group, Department of Anthropology, Durham University, Durham, UK
Bioessays 32:940-8. 2010..These findings underline the importance to females of selecting a sexual partner of high genetic quality, as well as the generality of the role of MHC genes in sexual selection...

Department of Anthropology, Durham University, South Road, Durham, DH1 3LE, UK
Chem Senses 35:205-20. 2010..The similarity of our findings to those for other mammals and in primates that are more distantly related to humans suggests a broader role for odor in primate communication than is currently recognized...
