Range‐wide indicators of African great ape density distribution [PDF]
, 2021 Species distributions are influenced by processes occurring at multiple spatial scales. It is therefore insufficient to model species distribution at a single geographic scale, as this does not provide the necessary understanding of determining factors ...

Neural representation of face familiarity in an awake chimpanzee [PDF]
PeerJ, 2013 Evaluating the familiarity of faces is critical for social animals as it is the basis of individual recognition. In the present study, we examined how face familiarity is reflected in neural activities in our closest living relative, the chimpanzee. Skin-

Dynamic Inconsistency in Great Apes
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2021 When presented with the option of either an immediate benefit or a larger, later reward, we may behave impatiently by choosing instant gratification. Nonetheless, when we can make the same decision ahead of time and plan for the future, we tend to make more patient choices.

Natural Selection in the Great Apes [PDF]
Molecular Biology and Evolution, 2016 Natural selection is crucial for the adaptation of populations to their environments. Here, we present the first global study of natural selection in the Hominidae (humans and great apes) based on genome-wide information from population samples representing all extant species (including most subspecies).

Population Genomics in the Great Apes [PDF]
, 2020 AbstractThe great apes play an important role as model organisms. They are our closest living relatives, allowing us to identify the genetic basis of phenotypic traits that we think of as characteristically human. However, the most significant asset of great apes as model organisms is that they share with humans most of their genetic makeup. This means

Detection of Ebola Virus Antibodies in Fecal Samples of Great Apes in Gabon
Viruses, 2020 Based on a large study conducted on wild great ape fecal samples collected in regions of Gabon where previous human outbreaks of Ebola virus disease have occurred between 1994 and 2002, we provide evidence for prevalence of Zaire ebolavirus (EBOV ...

Current Progress in Evolutionary Comparative Genomics of Great Apes
Frontiers in Genetics, 2021 The availability of high-quality genome sequences of great ape species provides unprecedented opportunities for genomic analyses. Herein, we reviewed the recent progress in evolutionary comparative genomic studies of the existing great ape species ...
