Significance The common marmoset has enormous promise as a nonhuman primate model. While resting-state functional MRI (fMRI) has provided evidence for a similar organization of marmoset and human cortices, the technique cannot be used to map the ...

Significance The MGA contains a large gene expression dataset from the developing brain of the common marmoset. However, the data represent the gene expression patterns across the entire brain, and methods to isolate region-specific gene expression ...

High plasticity in marmoset monkey vocal development from infancy to adulthood
Marmoset vocal behavior shows high plasticity throughout development, a crucial precursor for human vocal development. The vocal behavior of human infants undergoes marked changes across their first year while becoming increasingly speech-like ...

Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Marmoset Monkeys
The use of the common marmoset monkey (Callithrix jacchus) for neuroscientific research has grown markedly in the last decade. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has played a significant role in establishing the extent of comparability of marmoset brain ...

Multi-area recordings and optogenetics in the awake, behaving marmoset
The common marmoset has emerged as a key model in neuroscience. Marmosets are small in size, show great potential for genetic modification and exhibit complex behaviors. Thus, it is necessary to develop technology that enables monitoring and manipulation

Investigation of marmoset hybrids (Cebuella pygmaea x Callithrix jacchus) and related Callitrichinae (Platyrrhini) by cross-species chromosome painting and comparative genomic hybridization [PDF]
We report on the cytogenetics of twin offspring from an interspecies cross in marmosets (Callitrichinae, Platyrrhini), resulting from a pairing between a female Common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus, 2n = 46) and a male Pygmy marmoset (Cebuella pygmaea, 2n

Structural Attributes and Principles of the Neocortical Connectome in the Marmoset Monkey
The marmoset monkey has become an important primate model in Neuroscience. Here we characterize salient statistical properties of inter-areal connections of the marmoset cerebral cortex, using data from retrograde tracer injections.

Terguride stimulates locomotor activity at 2 months but not 10 months after 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine treatment of common marmosets [PDF]
The mixed dopamine (DA) agonist/antagonist terguride acts as a DA antagonist on normosensitive receptors but shows DA agonistic properties at supersensitive DA receptors.

Does opportunistic testing bias cognitive performance in primates? Learning from drop-outs [PDF]
Dropouts are a common issue in cognitive tests with non-human primates. One main reason for dropouts is that researchers often face a trade-off between obtaining a sufficiently large sample size and logistic restrictions, such as limited access to ...

The power of stories in Pediatrics and Genetics [PDF]
On the occasion of the opening ceremony of the 43rd Sicilian Congress of Pediatrics, linked with Italian Society of Pediatrics SIP, SIN, SIMEUP, SIAIP and SINP, held in Catania in November 2015, the Organizing Committee dedicated a tribute to Professor ...
