DOI: 10.1002/ajp.23122
Abstract: The Brazelton Neonatal Behavioral Assessment Scale (NBAS) evaluates a newborn infant's autonomic, motor, state, temperament, and social‐attentional systems, which can help to identify infants at risk of developmental problems. Given the prevalence of rhesus monkeys… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ajp.23442
Abstract: Rhesus monkeys and humans are highly social primates, yet both species exhibit pronounced variation in social functioning, spanning a spectrum of sociality. Naturally occurring low sociality in rhesus monkeys may be a promising construct by… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/dev.21744
Abstract: Growing evidence identifies maternal adiposity as a potentially modifiable risk factor for adverse neurodevelopment. This retrospective cohort analysis examined whether maternal prepregnancy adiposity and gestational weight gain were associated with behavioral outcomes in 173 rhesus… read more here.

Effects of ketamine treatment on cocaine-induced reinstatement and disruption of functional connectivity in unanesthetized rhesus monkeys

DOI: 10.1007/s00213-019-05204-4
Abstract: RationaleSubstance use disorders are characterized by a loss of executive control over reward-based decision-making, and disruption of fronto-striatal connectivity has been implicated in this process. Sub-anesthetic ketamine has recently been shown to bolster fronto-striatal connectivity… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00251-019-01125-w
Abstract: Indian rhesus macaque major histocompatibility complex (MHC) variation can influence the outcomes of transplantation and infectious disease studies. Frequently, rhesus macaques are MHC genotyped to identify variants that could account for unexpected results. Since the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10354-021-00829-7
Abstract: Significant progress in prenatal care has decreased the incidence of rhesus incompatibility, which may result in hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN). This case report describes an unusual presentation of HDFN in a… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.cell.2020.11.007
Abstract: SARS-CoV-2 induced hypercytokinemia and inflammation are critically associated with COVID-19 disease severity. Baricitinib, a clinically approved JAK1/2 inhibitor, is currently being investigated in COVID-19 clinical trials. Here, we investigated the immunologic and virologic efficacy of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.nlm.2021.107505
Abstract: Acetylcholine plays a pivotal neuromodulatory role in the brain, influencing neuronal activity and cognitive function. Nicotinic receptors, particularly α7 and α4β2 receptors, modulate firing of dorsolateral prefrontal (dlPFC) excitatory networks that underlie successful working memory… read more here.
