Of Apples and Oranges? The Evolution of “Monogamy” in Non-human Primates [PDF]
Behavioral ecologists, evolutionary biologists, and anthropologists have been long fascinated by the existence of “monogamy” in the animal kingdom.

A Study of Spontaneous Self-Injurious Behavior and Neuroimaging in Rhesus Macaques
Nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI) demonstrates escalating prevalence among adolescents as a maladaptive behavior characterized by deliberate self-harm, yet its neurobiological underpinnings remain elusive.

Experimental field studies with non-human primates
This project has received funding from the European Union’s Seventh Framework Programme for research, technological development and demonstration under grant agreement no 283871.One way to study language evolution is to compare human communication with ...

Non-Human Primate Models of Tuberculosis
ABSTRACT Among the animal models of tuberculosis (TB), the non-human primates, particularly rhesus macaques ( Macaca fascicularis ) and cynomolgus macaques ( Macaca mulatta ), share the greatest anatomical and physiological similarities with humans.

Brain structure and function: a multidisciplinary pipeline to study hominoid brain evolution [PDF]
To decipher the evolution of the hominoid brain and its functions, it is essential to conduct comparative studies in primates, including our closest living relatives. However, strong ethical concerns preclude in vivo neuroimaging of great apes.

Molecular cytotaxonomy of primates by chromosomal in situ suppression hybridization [PDF]
A new strategy for analyzing chromosomal evolution in primates is presented using chromosomal in situ suppression (CISS) hybridization. Biotin-labeled DNA libraries from flow-sorted human chromosomes are hybridized to chromosome preparations of ...

Distribution of TT virus (TTV), TTV-like minivirus, and related viruses in humans and nonhuman primates [PDF]
TT virus (TTV) and TTV-like minivirus (TLMV) are small DNA viruses with single-stranded, closed circular, antisense genomes infecting man. Despite their extreme sequence heterogeneity (>50%), a highly conserved region in the untranslated region (UTR ...

Culture in Non-human Primates: Definitions and Evidence [PDF]
The attribution of culture to non-human animals has been controversial and continues to fuel much heated debate, much of which hinges on how culture is defined.

Embryo‐like structures (stembryos) are an innovative tool, but they are hindered by experimental variability and limited developmental potential. DNA methylation is crucial for mammalian development, but its status in stembryo models is poorly characterized.
