The mechanism of labor in nonhuman primates: A look inside

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract While in humans, the flexed position of the fetus and its rotating course down the birth canal are well documented, in other primates the mechanism of labor is unknown. Despite the lack of comparative data, it is commonly assumed that the human obstetric mechanism is unique, and anthropologists have disputed when and why the transition to the ...

Intrinsic functional clustering of the macaque insular cortex

open access: yesFrontiers in Integrative Neuroscience
The functional organization of the primate insula has been studied using a variety of techniques focussing on regional differences in either architecture, connectivity, or function.

The functional organization of area V2, I: Specialization across stripes and layers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
We used qualitative tests to assess the sensitivity of 1043 V2 neurons (predominantly multiunits) in anesthetised macaque monkeys to direction, length. orientation. and color of moving bar stimuli.

Evolutionary morphology of the haplorhine hamate

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Primates adopt a variety of hand postures during an impressive diversity of locomotor and manipulative behaviors. Morphological research has found that elements of the hand skeleton, such as the hamate, hold key information for inferring hand use and locomotor kinematics in extinct species.

Variable grouping patterns in primates: A test of the better competitor hypothesis in male Verreaux's sifaka (Propithecus verreauxi)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Intraspecific variation in social organization (IVSO) within primate populations can arise due to male mating competition. Verreaux's sifaka (Propithecus verreauxi) populations exhibit both single‐male and multi‐male groups, providing an opportunity to examine the relationship between male competitive ability and social organization.

Evaluating Bergmann's and Allen's rules in the long bones of the eastern gray squirrel

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Ecogeographical rules predict variation in body size and appendage proportions across climatic gradients, yet intraspecific tests using long bones from wild populations remain limited among small mammals. This study tests the hypothesis that eastern gray squirrels (Sciurus carolinensis) conform to Bergmann's rule, that is, body size increases ...

Construction and operation of a high-speed, high-precision eye tracker for tight stimulus synchronization and real-time gaze monitoring in human and animal subjects

open access: yesFrontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2016
Measurements of the fast and precise movements of the eye—critical to many vision, oculomotor, and animal behaviour studies—can be made non-invasively by video oculography.
