    The Natural History of Model Organisms: The rhesus macaque as a success story of the Anthropocene

    Eve B Cooper, Lauren JN Brent ... James P Higham
    The rhesus macaque is a non-human primate that is widely used as a model organism in ecology, evolutionary biology and behavioural science.

    Landscape drives zoonotic malaria prevalence in non-human primates

    Emilia Johnson, Reuben Sunil Kumar Sharma ... Kimberly Fornace
    Regional meta-analysis enriches our understanding of zoonotic malaria in primate reservoirs in areas of Southeast Asia experiencing deforestation, with wider ecological implications for human disease risk in fragmented landscapes.

    Resource depletion through primate stone technology

    Lydia V Luncz, Amanda Tan ... Michael Gumert
    Technology-driven overharvesting of marine prey influences tool selection pattern in long tailed macaques, posing a serious threat to their behavioural traditions.

    Contrasting effects of Western vs Mediterranean diets on monocyte inflammatory gene expression and social behavior in a primate model

    Corbin SC Johnson, Carol A Shively ... Noah Snyder-Mackler
    Modern human diet patterns alter primate behavior and monocyte gene expression leading to monocyte polarization–experimental evidence of the evolutionary mismatch hypothesis.

    Dengue viruses cleave STING in humans but not in nonhuman primates, their presumed natural reservoir

    Alex C Stabell, Nicholas R Meyerson ... Sara L Sawyer
    An analysis of innate immunity reveals why dengue viruses do not reach high titers in primate laboratory models, even though they emerged through zoonotic transmission from primate reservoirs.

    Single-cell and single-nucleus RNA-seq uncovers shared and distinct axes of variation in dorsal LGN neurons in mice, non-human primates, and humans

    Trygve E Bakken, Cindy TJ van Velthoven ... Bosiljka Tasic
    Transcriptomic differences between relay neurons in the mature mammalian dLGN are subtle relative to striking differences in morphology and cortical projection targets.

    Stone Tool Use: Monkeys overharvest shellfish

    George H Perry, Brian F Codding
    The use of stone tools by macaques in Thailand has reduced the size and population density of coastal shellfish; previously it was thought that tool-assisted overharvesting effects resulted uniquely from human activity.

    Associations between sounds and actions in early auditory cortex of nonhuman primates

    Ying Huang, Peter Heil, Michael Brosch
    Early auditory cortex of nonhuman primates represents associations between sounds and actions, in both spiking activity and local field potentials.

    Group-specific archaeological signatures of stone tool use in wild macaques

    Lydia V Luncz, Mike Gill ... Suchinda Malaivijitnond
    Tool behaviour of long-tailed macaques leaves archaeological signatures that differ between populations despite similar ecological conditions, highlighting the potential for diversity in material culture.
