How task format affects cognitive performance:a memory test with two species of New World monkeys [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In cognitive tests, animals are often given a choice between two options and obtain a reward if they choose correctly. We investigated whether task format affects subjects' performance in a physical cognition test.

Viral Vector-Based Dissection of Marmoset GFAP Promoter in Mouse and Marmoset Brains. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Adeno-associated virus (AAV) vectors are small in diameter, diffuse easily in the brain, and represent a highly efficient means by which to transfer a transgene to the brain of a large animal. A major demerit of AAV vectors is their limited accommodation

Prenatal development of neonatal vocalizations

open access: yeseLife, 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

An Adaptive Threshold in Mammalian Neocortical Evolution

open access: yes, 2013
Expansion of the neocortex is a hallmark of human evolution. However, it remains an open question what adaptive mechanisms facilitated its expansion.

Modelling the structure of full-length Epstein-Barr virus nuclear antigen 1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a clinically important human virus associated with several cancers and is the etiologic agent of infectious mononucleosis. The viral nuclear antigen-1 (EBNA1) is central to the replication and propagation of the viral genome

A family case of fertile human 45,X,psu dic(15;Y) males [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We report on a familial case including four male probands from three generations with a 45,X,psu dic(15;Y)(p11.2;q12) karyotype. 45,X is usually associated with a female phenotype and only rarely with maleness, due to translocation of small Y chromosomal
