Social ageing can protect against infectious disease in a group-living primate

E. R. Siracusa, M. A. Pavez-Fox, J. E. Negron-Del Valle, D. Phillips, M. L. Platt, N. Snyder-Mackler, J. P. Higham, L. J. N. Brent, M. J. Silk

The paper examines how reduced social connectedness in older primates can mitigate infection risks from a hypothetical pathogen, showing age-related changes in social behavior affect disease dynamics.

The impact of kinship composition on social structure

A. D. S. Pereira, M. A. Pavez-Fox, J. D. A. Hart, J. E. Negron-Del Valle, D. Phillips, C. Casanova, D. De Moor, L. J. N. Brent

This study investigates how kinship composition affects social structure in rhesus macaques but finds no significant difference, suggesting larger sample sizes or species comparisons may be needed.

Reduced injury risk links sociality to survival in a group-living primate

M. A. Pavez-Fox, C. M. Kimock, N. Rivera-Barreto, J. E. Negron-Del Valle, D. Phillips, A. Ruiz-Lambides, N. Snyder-Mackler, J. P. Higham, E. R. Siracusa, L. J. N. Brent

The paper investigates how sociality affects injury risk and survival in rhesus macaques, finding that social integration reduces injury risk but not mortality after injury.

Age, sex, and social environmental effects on immune cell composition in a free-ranging non-human primate.

M. R. S. Rosado, N. Marzan-Rivera, M. M. Watowich, A. D. Negron-Del Valle, P. Pantoja, M. A. Pavez-Fox, E. R. Siracusa, J. E. Negron-Del Valle, D. Phillips, A. Ruiz-Lambides, Cayo Biobank Research Unit, M. I. Martinez, M. J. Montague, M. L. Platt, J. P. Higham, , N. Snyder-Mackler

This study examines how age, sex, and social status affect immune cell composition in rhesus macaques, revealing age-related immunosenescence and sex-dependent effects of social adversity.
