DOI: 10.1002/ajp.23488
Abstract: Chronic emesis (CE) is a poorly understood condition in human and nonhuman primates that negatively impacts the quality of life. Early identification of risk factors for the development of CE is likely to improve the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/aur.2675
Abstract: Nonhuman primates and especially rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta) have been indispensable animal models for studies of various aspects of neurobiology, developmental psychology, and other aspects of neuroscience. While remarkable progress has been made in our… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00705-019-04194-0
Abstract: Animal cells have multiple innate effector mechanisms that inhibit viral replication. For the pathogenic retrovirus human immunodeficiency virus 1 (HIV-1), there are widely expressed restriction factors, such as APOBEC3 proteins, tetherin/BST2, SAMHD1 and MX2, as… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10764-018-0014-1
Abstract: Historically, humans and other primates (primates henceforth) have coexisted across cultures and contexts, and many primate populations use anthropogenic food sources as their main or supplementary food. While primates may actively forage for such food,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.anbehav.2019.03.009
Abstract: In social animals, affiliative behaviours bring many benefits, but also costs such as disease risk. The ways in which affiliation may affect the risk of infectious agent transmission remain unclear. Moreover, studies linking variation in… read more here.
