Bystanders intervene to impede grooming in Western chimpanzees and sooty mangabeys [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2017
Grooming interactions benefit groomers, but may have negative consequences for bystanders. Grooming limits bystanders' grooming access and ensuing alliances could threaten the bystander's hierarchy rank or their previous investment in the groomers.

Bonobo and chimpanzee gestures overlap extensively in meaning

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2018
Cross-species comparison of great ape gesturing has so far been limited to the physical form of gestures in the repertoire, without questioning whether gestures share the same meanings.

Play-solicitation gestures in chimpanzees in the wild: flexible adjustment to social circumstances and individual matrices [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2016
Social play is a frequent behaviour in great apes and involves sophisticated forms of communicative exchange. While it is well established that great apes test and practise the majority of their gestural signals during play interactions, the influence of

Producing non-steady-state gaits (starting, stopping, and turning) in a biologically realistic quadrupedal simulation

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Multibody dynamic analysis (MDA) has become part of the standard toolkit used to reconstruct the biomechanics of extinct animals. However, its use is currently almost exclusively limited to steady state activities such as walking and running at constant ...

Evidence of widespread degradation of gene control regions in hominid genomes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Although sequences containing regulatory elements located close to protein-coding genes are often only weakly conserved during evolution, comparisons of rodent genomes have implied that these sequences are subject to some selective constraints ...

Head-mounted eye tracking of a chimpanzee under naturalistic conditions.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
This study offers a new method for examining the bodily, manual, and eye movements of a chimpanzee at the micro-level. A female chimpanzee wore a lightweight head-mounted eye tracker (60 Hz) on her head while engaging in daily interactions with the human

The KIR repertoire of a West African chimpanzee population is characterized by limited gene, allele, and haplotype variation

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
IntroductionThe killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIR) play a pivotal role in modulating the NK cell responses, for instance, through interaction with major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules.

Estimation of chimpanzee age based on DNA methylation

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
In wild animal conservation, knowing the age of an individual animal is extremely beneficial. However, estimating the age is difficult for many species. Recently, epigenetics-based methods of estimating age have been reported.
