DOI: 10.1002/ajp.23353
Abstract: Saimiri are neotropical primates with seasonal reproduction, males develop a seasonal fattening condition that has been suggested as a pre‐copulatory sexual selection strategy. Furthermore, females mate with multiple males in the same season. This could… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/cercor/bhad036
Abstract: The posterior parietal cortex (PPC) of squirrel monkeys contains subregions where long trains of intracortical microstimulation evoke complex, behaviorally meaningful movements. Recently, we showed that such stimulation of a part of the PPC in the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1099/mgen.0.000395
Abstract: Adenoviruses are a frequent cause of acute upper respiratory tract infections that can also cause disseminated disease in immunosuppressed patients. We identified a novel adenovirus, squirrel monkey adenovirus 1 (SqMAdV-1), as the cause of fatal… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/jmp.12344
Abstract: Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii) is an intracellular protozoan parasite that can infect warm‐blooded animals including humans. New World monkeys, such as squirrel monkeys, are more susceptible to T. gondii than Old World monkeys, often developing… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/jmp.12618
Abstract: Nonhuman primates (NHPs) are fundamental for countless types of research and their phylogenetic similarities with humans make them valuable biomodels. Saimiri (squirrel monkeys) is the New World simian genus that is most widely used in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/vcp.12454
Abstract: BACKGROUND The combined use of renal biochemistry and ultrasonographic imaging may improve the correct management of renal disease. Although renal disease is frequently observed in nonhuman primates, renal function markers have not yet been studied… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/v15030615
Abstract: During the Zika virus (ZIKV) outbreak and after evidence of its sexual transmission was obtained, concerns arose about the impact of the adverse effects of ZIKV infection on human fertility. In this study, we evaluated… read more here.
