Early life adversity shapes adult behavior in a free-ranging primate

This study examines how early life adversity affects adult behavior in free-ranging rhesus macaques, finding that ELA correlates with increased aggression, reduced grooming, and submissive behaviors.

Age and early life adversity shape heterogeneity of the epigenome across tissues in macaques

The paper shows that age and early life adversity affect DNA methylation across tissues in macaques, with distinct but overlapping patterns.

The influence of captivity on cardiac structure and function across age, in rhesus macaques

This study compares cardiac structure and function in free-ranging and captive rhesus macaques across age, finding that captive macaques show more pronounced age-related cardiac changes.

Evolutionary and biomedical implications of sex differences in the primate brain transcriptome

The paper analyzes sex-biased gene expression in rhesus macaque brains to understand its evolutionary and biomedical implications, finding similarities with human patterns and associations with neurodevelopmental disorders.
