Primate Behavior and Ecology

This paper introduces a method to simultaneously measure whole-brain activation in two socially interacting marmoset monkeys using functional MRI and finds neuronal synchrony in brain regions involved in social processing.

This study identifies candidate genes under selection in cebid primates, revealing evolutionary pressures on brain development and other traits across their evolutionary history.

This study examines corpus callosum morphology in baboons across their lifespan, finding no age-related atrophy in old age, similar to other non-human primates.

The paper determines corresponding ages between humans and chimpanzees across the lifespan and finds that prefrontal cortex maturation timelines are not unusually extended in humans.

This study develops a chimpanzee brain reference template and processing pipeline to analyze structural MRI data, revealing age-related GM atrophy and hemispheric asymmetry patterns.

This paper introduces a semi-automated platform for training common marmosets in-home for behavioral neuroscience studies, enabling naturalistic behavior analysis with minimal experimenter intervention.

The paper examines sulcal morphology in the medial frontal cortex of primates to reveal evolutionary patterns and challenge previous assumptions about human uniqueness.

This study analyzes MRI data from 34 primate species to investigate the evolution of neocortical folding, finding a Brownian Motion model best fits the data and a stable fold wavelength across varying brain sizes.

The paper quantifies neuronal density and distribution across the marmoset cortex, revealing regional and laminar variations and their potential functional and developmental implications.

The paper quantifies prefrontal cortex (PFC) size in humans relative to nonhuman primates, finding humans have significantly larger PFC gray and white matter volumes compared to chimpanzees and macaques.

This study finds no sex differences in higher cognitive function between male and female rhesus monkeys in episodic memory and strategy implementation tests.
