Advanced Science, EarlyView.Human‐relevant methods are essential for modern chemical safety assessment. This study helps define the capabilities and boundaries of an in vitro testing battery for developmental neurotoxicity by exploring its biological applicability domain. By linking neurodevelopmental disease‐related pathways to key neurodevelopmental processes, the work enhances

Lymphoid‐Tissue‐on‐Chip Recapitulates Human Antibody Responses In Vitro
Advanced Science, EarlyView.The presented lymphoid‐tissue‐on‐chip system allows culture of primary human tonsil cells at organotypic high density under perfusion for up to 4 weeks, emulates immune response to soluble vaccines and vaccination via peripheral antigen‐presenting cells and represents a useful tool to assess cellular interactions during homeostasis, immune responses ...

Using natural ecology to predict higher cognition in human and non-human primates [PDF]
Animal Behavior and Cognition, 2019 Many critical aspects of contemporary human cognitive functionality (e.g., reading, fixing a car) evolved historically in a time frame that biological natural selection cannot account for.

Adult Sex Ratio as a Demographic Feedback Linking Mating Systems, Parental Care, and Evolution
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Breeding systems are some of the most diverse social behavior, and our team is investigation the evolutionary causes of this diversity. This review summarises our research carried out at the University of Bath. We argue that demographic components of wild populations, especially the adult sex ratio, plays a key role driving breeding system variation ...

Forelimb movements evoked by optogenetic stimulation of the macaque motor cortex
Nature Communications, 2020 Non-human primates are useful models for understanding the human brain but application of optogenetics to non-human primates is challenging. The authors used optogenetic intracortical microstimulation in the primary motor cortex of macaques to elicit ...
