Stable isotope evidence of meat eating and hunting specialization in adult male chimpanzees [PDF]
, 2013 Observations of hunting and meat eating in our closest living relatives, chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes), suggest that among primates, regular inclusion of meat in the diet is not a characteristic unique to Homo.

Nonhuman primates as models of hemispheric specialization [PDF]
, 1999 The present chapter concerns the issue of hemispheric specialization for perceptual and cognitive processes. In spite of a long-lasting view that only humans are lateralized (e.g., Warren, 1980), there is now strong documentation for anatomical ...

Using the nonhuman primate model of HCMV to guide vaccine development. [PDF]
, 2014 The natural history of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is inextricably associated with mucosal surfaces. The vast preponderance of primary infections occur following mucosal exposure to infectious virions, and the high seroprevalence of HCMV throughout the ...

Foraging Cognition in Nonhuman Primates [PDF]
, 2010 In terms of total biomass, primates are very successful vertebrates in most undisturbed tropical forests (Chapman et al., 1999a; Fleagle & Reed, 1996). Many primate species are forest dwellers, and the forest habitat is likely to have had a major impact on primate evolution.
