Andrew J. Marshall
About
Marshall is a biological anthropologist, tropical ecologist, and conservation biologist primarily interested in the ecology and conservation of primates and tropical forests. His principal research areas are the ecology, evolution, and conservation of primates and their rainforest habitats, and application of the knowledge gleaned from these studies to advance understanding of human evolution. Marshall's study subjects are chiefly diurnal primates (particularly orangutans, gibbons, and leaf monkeys) and tropical forests in Indonesia; the majority of his empirical work is based on data collected at his long-term research site in Gunung Palung National Park, West Kalimantan. His formal academic appointment is split between the Department of Anthropology and the Program in the Environment at the University of Michigan, where he is also affiliated with the School for Environment and Sustainability and the Graham Sustainability Institute.
