Object grasping and manipulation in capuchin monkeys (genera Cebus and Sapajus) [PDF]
, 2018 The abilities to perform skilled hand movements and to manipulate objects dexterously are landmarks in the evolution of primates. The study of how primates use their hands to grasp and manipulate objects in accordance with their needs sheds light on how ...

Does opportunistic testing bias cognitive performance in primates? Learning from drop-outs [PDF]
, 2019 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 ...

Multisensory perception of looming and receding objects in human newborns [PDF]
, 2018 When newborns leave the enclosed spatial environment of the uterus and arrive in the outside world, they are faced with a new audiovisual environment of dynamic objects, actions and events both close to themselves and further away.

Non-invasive Eye Tracking Methods for New World and Old World Monkeys
Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2019 Eye-tracking methods measure what humans and other animals visually attend to in the environment. In nonhuman primates, eye tracking can be used to test hypotheses about how primates process social information.

Encoding of Intention and Spatial Location in the Posterior Parietal Cortex [PDF]
, 1995 The posterior parietal cortex is functionally situated between sensory cortex and motor cortex. The responses of cells in this area are difficult to classify as strictly sensory or motor, since many have both sensory- and movement-related activities, as ...

Intestinal capillariasis in New World monkeys
Journal of Medical Primatology, 1994 Two cases of intestinal capillariasis have been identified at necropsy in a squirrel monkey and a capuchin monkey born and raised in captivity. The parasites are described as far as possible from the histopathological slides or intestinal contents, and their relationship to other intestinal capillarids, especially those of primates, is discussed.
