Abundant evidence supports the presence of at least three distinct types of thalamocortical (TC) neurons in the primate dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus (dLGN) of the thalamus, the brain region that conveys visual information from the retina to the ...

The Cranial Base in Fetal Macaca nemestrina: A Quantitative Analysis of Size and Shape
The applicability of Fourier analysis to quantitate the midsagittal cranial base has been demonstrated utilizing fetal Macaca nemestrina. This methodology accurately measures the irregular form of the endocranial profile, minimizes the effects of size ...

Validating Dental Histology for Perinatal Age Estimation Using Human Deciduous Teeth
ABSTRACT Objectives This study tests the accuracy of dental histology for perinatal age estimation using deciduous teeth from modern human infants of known age. We evaluate whether enamel and dentin incremental structures, particularly the Neonatal Line (NNL), can be used to provide a reliable estimate of chronological age.

Human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6), a T lymphotropic herpesvirus, has been suggested as a potential cofactor in the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Previous studies indicate that HHV-6 has a restricted range of susceptible species.

Microbial Contributions to Primate Reproduction
ABSTRACT Reproduction is a complex process, and microbes play a far greater role than previously imagined. This review explores the ways that microbiomes influence the rich tapestry of reproductive processes and outcomes within the primate lineage, including pre‐copulatory and post‐copulatory mechanisms.

Macaques (Macaca nemestrina) recognize when they are being imitated [PDF]
This study investigated whether monkeys recognize when a human experimenter imitates their actions towards an object. Two experimenters faced 10 pigtailed macaques, who were given access to an interesting object. One experimenter imitated the monkeys' object-directed actions, the other performed temporally contingent but structurally different object ...

OccuGAMs: Non‐linear occupancy and abundance modelling with imperfect detection
Abstract Hierarchical occupancy and abundance models (HOAMs) have become a leading approach for inferring wildlife population dynamics because they explicitly account for imperfect detection. HOAMs are suitable for sampling approaches that produce detection histories from repeated visits to the same sites, including direct observations (e.g. bird point

15 pregnant female monkeys ( Macaca nemestrina) were observed and the frequencies of 14 categories of agonistic behavior were recorded. Predictions of sex of fetus were based on relative frequencies of aggressive and submissive behaviors.

Heritability estimation of osteoarthritis in the pig-tailed macaque (Macaca nemestrina) with a look toward future data collection [PDF]
We examine heritability estimation of an ordinal trait for osteoarthritis, using a population of pig-tailed macaques from the Washington National Primate Research Center (WaNPRC).
