Intragroup sociality drives individual participation in intergroup competition in an urban-dwelling nonhuman primate

This study examines how socio-ecological factors influence participation in intergroup competition among urban-dwelling rhesus macaques, finding that affiliative connections and social position significantly affect engagement.

OpenMonkeyChallenge: Dataset and Benchmark Challenges for Pose Tracking of Non-human Primates

The paper introduces a benchmark challenge and dataset for non-human primate pose tracking, demonstrating its effectiveness through comparison with existing datasets.

Joint interactions with humans may pose a higher risk of zoonotic outbreaks than interactions with conspecifics among wildlife populations at human-wildlife interfaces

The paper uses social network analysis and SIR models to show that human-wildlife interactions increase zoonotic outbreak risk more than wildlife-wildlife interactions in macaques.

Social Housing Status Impacts Rhesus Monkeys' Affective Responding in Classic Threat Processing Tasks

This study shows that social housing conditions in adult rhesus monkeys affect their affective responses to threatening stimuli, with individually-housed monkeys showing reduced sensitivity.

Estradiol treatment in a nonhuman primate model of menopause preserves affective reactivity

This study examines how estradiol treatment in aged, surgically menopausal rhesus monkeys affects affective reactivity to threat, finding that estradiol preserves threat calibration similar to middle-aged monkeys.
