This paper presents a novel monkey model with impaired DISC1 gene to study adolescent prodromal phenotypes of psychiatric disorders, finding altered social behavior and disrupted brain connectivity.

This study shows that the interhemispheric pathway's role in motor recovery changes from inhibitory to facilitatory in primates after corticospinal tract lesioning, affecting hand movements during early recovery.

This study shows that global disinhibition and corticospinal plasticity enable drastic motor recovery after spinal cord injury in macaques through intensive training and cortical electrical stimulation.

The paper investigates visuomotor transformations in blindsight macaques, finding that the dorsal premotor cortex maintains task-related theta-band responses after V1 lesioning, suggesting its role in hand movement control.
