Primate neuronal connections are sparse in cortex as compared to mouse
Summary: Detailing how primate and mouse neurons differ is critical for creating generalized models of how neurons process information. We reconstruct 15,748 synapses in adult Rhesus macaques and mice and ask how connectivity differs on identified cell ...

A rhesus macaque model of α-dystroglycanopathy caused by a POMT1 splice altering variant. [PDF]
Rhesus macaques homozygous for a naturally occurring spice altering variant in the POMT1 gene develop lissencephaly, microphthalmia, and muscular contracture. The presentation models severe presentation of the human Walker‐Warburg syndrome. Abstract Background Biallelic mutations in genes associated with α‐dystroglycan glycosylation manifest in a ...

Radioimmunoassay of human plasma Lp(a) lipoprotein
A quantitative immunodiffusion assay demonstrated Lp(a) lipoprotein in 91% (911 of 1000) of subjects. In order to quantitate Lp(a) in all plasma, a sensitive and specific double antibody radioimmunoassay was developed.

Failure is the greatest teacher: Embracing the positives of failure in primate conservation [PDF]
“Failure” is recognised as being vital for success in many fields but is seldom embraced in primate conservation or conservation more generally. In this paper, we use examples from the literature, particularly around reintroduction, to reflect on failure

First dietary study of the critically endangered black morph Bornean banded langur (Presbytis chrysomelas chrysomelas) using DNA metabarcoding [PDF]
The black morph Bornean banded langur (Presbytis chrysomelas chrysomelas) is a critically endangered primate endemic to Sarawak, Borneo. Detailed knowledge of its diet is essential for guiding effective conservation strategies.

Le jeu des illusions : discrimination entre apparence et réalité chez les primates
Perception is an essential process to gather information about our physical and social environment, and thus to adjust our behaviour to environmental changes. However, we are confronted every day with ambiguous situations in which things appear different

ENVIRONMENTAL STRESS ON THE REPRODUCTION OF NON-HUMAN PRIMATES
The aim of this review paper is to present some aspects of environmental stress, such as climate change and food limitation that could affect nonhuman primate population due to poor reproductive performance.
