Corrigendum to “Zeaxanthin: Review of Toxicological Data and Acceptable Daily Intake” by James A. Edwards, Dirk Cremer

“…A 52-week chronic oral study in cynomolgus monkeys at doses of 0.2 and 20 mg/kg  bw/day, mainly designed to assess accumulation and effects in primate eyes, showed no adverse effects. In a two-generation study in rats, the NOAEL was 150 mg/kg  bw/day. …”

Gray matter volume and asymmetry in Broca's and Wernicke's area homologs in chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes) using a probabilistic region of interest approach by William D Hopkins, Muhammad A Spocter, Michele M Mulholland, Chet C Sherwood

“…Because of their roles in higher cognitive and linguistic function, there has been historical and contemporary interest in comparative studies on the morphology and cytoarchitectonic organization in Broca's and Wernicke's between primate species. One challenge to comparative morphological studies between human and nonhuman primates for Broca's and Wernicke's areas is the absence in homologous sulci used to define these regions. …”

The amygdala and the pursuit of future rewards by S. Tobias Johnson, Fabian Grabenhorst

“…This neural evidence identifies three key computations of the primate amygdala that underlie the pursuit of future rewards: (1) forming a self-determined internal goal based on subjective reward-cost valuations, (2) defining a behavioral plan for obtaining the goal, (3) executing this plan through stepwise decision-making and progress-tracking. …”
