Such data are critical for a holistic... Mélissa Berthet, Martin Surbeck, and Simon W Townsend. 2025. “[Extensive Compositionality in the Vocal System of Bonobos](https://www.science.org/doi/abs/10.1126/science.adv1170)”.

Science, 388, 6742, Pp. 104-8 - add\_circle\_outline do\_not\_disturb\_on Abstract Compositionality, the capacity to combine meaningful elements into larger meaningful structures, is a hallmark of human language. Compositionality can be trivial (the combination’s meaning is the sum of the meaning of its parts) or nontrivial (one element... Martin Surbeck, Leveda Cheng, Melodie Kreyer, Gerrit Gort, Roger Mundry, Gottfried Hohmann, and Barbara Fruth. 2025. “[Drivers of Female Power in Bonobos](/publication/drivers-female-power-bonobos)”. Communication Biology, 8 Martin Surbeck, Leveda Cheng, Melodie Kreyer, Gerrit Gort, Roger Mundry, Gottfried Hohmann, and Barbara Fruth. 2025. “[Drivers of Female Power in Bonobos](/publication/drivers-female-power-bonobos)”. Communication Biology, 8 - add\_circle\_outline do\_not\_disturb\_on Abstract In mammals, female dominance over males is a rare phenomenon. However, recent findings indicate that even in species with sexual dimorphism biased towards males, females sometimes occupy high status. Here we test three main hypotheses explaining... Leveda Cheng, Liran Samuni, Tobias Deschner, and Martin Surbeck. 2025. “[Oxytocin Activity Is Not Linked to Out-Group Prosociality in Wild Bonobos](/publication/oxytocin-activity-not-linked-out-group-prosociality-wild-bonobos)”.

Scientific Reports, 15 - add\_circle\_outline do\_not\_disturb\_on Abstract In many group-living species, cooperative group defense is crucial to the reproduction and survival of group members. In humans and chimpanzees, this adaptive behavior is regulated by oxytocin, a highly conserved neurohormone. In humans, oxytocin can also... ### 2024 Liran Samuni, Erin Wessling, and Martin Surbeck. 2024. “[Rethinking Peace from a Bonobo Perspective](https://www-cambridge-org.ezp-prod1.hul.harvard.edu/core/journals/behavioral-and-brain-sciences/article/rethinking-peace-from-a-bonobo-perspective/2024ED6A5BE568DDA363E4A35FD19FAE)”.

A deeper understanding of bonobo social systems allows us to reevaluate the preconditions for peace to gain a greater insight on... - [ descriptionPublisher's Version](https://www-cambridge-org.ezp-prod1.hul.harvard.edu/core/journals/behavioral-and-brain-sciences/article/rethinking-peace-from-a-bonobo-perspective/2024ED6A5BE568DDA363E4A35FD19FAE) Rachna Reddy, Liran Samuni, Veronika Staedele, Linda Vigilant, and Martin Surbeck. 2024. “[Maternal Conflict Intervention Is More Frequent in Chimpanzee Compared to Bonobo Development](https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0003347223002956)”.

Maternal intervention protects offspring and facilitates mother–offspring rank correlation in several female-philopatric species.
