Single monkey-saddle singularity of a Fermi surface and its instabilities [PDF]
Phys. Rev. B 107, 205129 (2023), 2023 Fermi surfaces can undergo sharp transitions under smooth changes of parameters. Such transitions can have a topological character, as is the case when a higher-order singularity, one that requires cubic or higher-order terms to describe the electronic dispersion near the singularity, develops at the transition.

Area 2 of primary somatosensory cortex encodes kinematics of the whole arm
eLife, 2020 Proprioception, the sense of body position, movement, and associated forces, remains poorly understood, despite its critical role in movement. Most studies of area 2, a proprioceptive area of somatosensory cortex, have simply compared neurons’ activities

Differentiation of primate primordial germ cell-like cells following transplantation into the adult gonadal niche. [PDF]
, 2017 A major challenge in stem cell differentiation is the availability of bioassays to prove cell types generated in vitro are equivalent to cells in vivo. In the mouse, differentiation of primordial germ cell-like cells (PGCLCs) from pluripotent cells was ...

Coding of self and other's future choices in dorsal premotor cortex during social interaction [PDF]
, 2018 Representing others’ intentions is central to primate social life. We explored the role of dorsal premotor cortex (PMd) in discriminating between self and others’ behavior while two male rhesus monkeys performed a non-match-to-goal task in a monkey-human

Chromosome Evolution in New World Monkeys (Platyrrhini) [PDF]
, 2012 During the last decades, New World monkey (NWM, Platyrrhini, Anthropoideae) comparative cytogenetics has shed light on many fundamental aspects of genome organisation and evolution in this fascinating, but also highly endangered group of neotropical ...

A Paradoxical Property of the Monkey Book [PDF]
J. Stat. Mech. (2011) P07013, 2011 A "monkey book" is a book consisting of a random distribution of letters and blanks, where a group of letters surrounded by two blanks is defined as a word. We compare the statistics of the word distribution for a monkey book with the corresponding distribution for the general class of random books, where the latter are books for which the words are ...

Monkey vocal tracts are speech-ready
Science Advances, 2016 X-ray analyses of macaque vocal tract movements show that monkeys’ inability to speak is not due to limitations of peripheral anatomy. For four decades, the inability of nonhuman primates to produce human speech sounds has been claimed to stem from ...

Infanticide in Chimpanzees: Taphonomic Case Studies from Gombe [PDF]
, 2017 Objectives We present a study of skeletal damage to four chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes) infanticide victims from Gombe National Park, Tanzania. Skeletal analysis may provide insight into the adaptive significance of infanticide by examining whether ...
