Christina Bergey

I am currently a graduate student at New York University, working in the Molecular Anthropology Laboratory. My research interests include non-human primate genetics and genomics, with an emphasis on bioinformatic techniques for studying primate phylogeny.

I am affiliated with:

• the NYU Department of Anthropology,
• the New York Consortium in Evolutionary Primatology, and
• the Center for the Study of Human Origins.

My current major projects involve the application of next-generation sequencing techniques to questions in primatology, especially those involving hybridization. My focus is on monkeys from the superfamily Cercopithecinae, such as baboons and guenons.
