Accelerated Evolution of the ASPM Gene Controlling Brain Size Begins Prior to Human Brain Expansion [PDF]
, 2004 Primary microcephaly (MCPH) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by global reduction in cerebral cortical volume. The microcephalic brain has a volume comparable to that of early hominids, raising the possibility that some MCPH genes may have ...

Primate photopigments and primate color vision. [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1996 The past 15 years have brought much progress in our understanding of several basic features of primate color vision. There has been particular success in cataloging the spectral properties of the cone photopigments found in retinas of a number of primate species and in elucidating the relationship between cone opsin genes and their photopigment ...

Primate archaeology evolves [PDF]
Nature Ecology & Evolution, 2017 Since its inception, archaeology has traditionally focused exclusively on humans and our direct ancestors. However, recent years have seen archaeological techniques applied to material evidence left behind by non-human animals. Here, we review advances made by the most prominent field investigating past non-human tool use: primate archaeology.
