Prenatal development of neonatal vocalizations
eLife, 2022 Human and non-human primates produce rhythmical sounds as soon as they are born. These early vocalizations are important for soliciting the attention of caregivers. How they develop remains a mystery. The orofacial movements necessary for producing these

Motion perception in the common marmoset [PDF]
Cerebral Cortex, 2019 Abstract Visual motion processing is a well-established model system for studying neural population codes in primates. The common marmoset, a small new world primate, offers unparalleled opportunities to probe these population codes in key motion processing areas, such as cortical areas MT and MST, because these areas are accessible for

Biopharmaceutics &Drug Disposition, EarlyView.This study identified new optimal allometric scaling exponents for human PK prediction of monoclonal antibodies with linear PKs from marmoset PK data. In addition, immunogenicity in common marmosets was evaluated following the repeated dose of golimumab and ustekinumab, minimal anti‐drug antibodies were detected.

Humans are not unique: difficult birth is common in placental mammals
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Human childbirth is widely presumed to be uniquely difficult and dangerous compared to birth in other mammals. Tight fetopelvic proportions can result in obstructed labour and contribute to high rates of maternal and neonatal mortality. Ideas summarised under the ‘obstetrical dilemma’ have contributed to this assumption by explaining difficult

Scientific ReportsEx vivo studies of the brain are often employed as experimental systems in neuroscience. In general, brains for ex vivo MRI studies are usually fixed with paraformaldehyde to preserve molecular structure and prevent tissue destruction during long-term ...

Organophosphate poisoning in marmosets
Laboratory Animals, 1982 Due to faulty use of a chlorpyriphos-diazinon combination as a pesticide within a laboratory animal house, 19 marmosets of 2 species ( Saguinus fuscicollis and Callithrix jacchus) of 98 at risk died from organophosphorous poisoning (19% mortality). The clinical signs were those of cholinesterase inhibitors.

Utterance evolution: the road to generative, combinatorial communicators
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Language has long been considered uniquely complex in the animal kingdom; however, animal research over the last decade has begun to challenge some long‐standing premises about exactly which language capacities are uniquely human. The task of resolving why and how complex communication systems evolve, particularly human language, has ...
