open access: yes, 1994
The AIDS epidemic, first discovered in the United States in 1981, has caused a great deal of speculation with regard to the origins of both the HIV-1 retrovirus and the early pathways for the epidemic itself. The African origins theory is the most widely

Levy walk patterns in the foraging movements of spider monkeys (Ateles geoffroyi) [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2003
Scale invariant patterns have been found in different biological systems, in many cases resembling what physicists have found in other nonbiological systems. Here we describe the foraging patterns of free-ranging spider monkeys (Ateles geoffroyi) in the forest of the Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico and find that these patterns resemble what physicists know ...

A comparative study of multiple clinical enterovirus 71 isolates and evaluation of cross protection of inactivated vaccine strain FY-23 K-B in vitro

open access: yesVirology Journal, 2017
Background Enterovirus 71 (EV71) is one of the causative agents of hand, foot and mouth disease, which mostly affects infants and children and leads to severe neurological diseases. Vaccination offers the best option for disease control. We have screened

Long-term in vivo expression of a murine adenosine deaminase gene in rhesus monkey hematopoietic cells of multiple lineages after retroviral mediated gene transfer into CD34+ bone marrow cells.

open access: yesBlood, 1993
Retroviral mediated gene transfer into stem cells has been proposed as therapy for many inherited hematopoietic diseases. Deficiency of the enzyme adenosine deaminase (ADA) results in depletion of T lymphocytes, causing severe combined immunodeficiency ...

Monkeys get a silver in Abstract Art Olympics [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2011
Experiment shows that art students prefer abstract art to monkey art in about two-third of the cases. Since the number is above 50%, some argue that abstract art is different and better than animal art. I compare this result with figure skating competitions, where on average 73% of judges prefer gold medalist to silver medalist.

The Random Division of the Unit Interval and the Approximate -1 Exponent in the Monkey-at-the-Typewriter Model of Zipf's Law [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2015
We show that the exponent in the inverse power law of word frequencies for the monkey-at-the-typewriter model of Zipf's law will tend towards -1 under broad conditions as the alphabet size increases to infinity and the letter probabilities are specified as the values from a random division of the unit interval.
