Serial visual reversal learning in captive black-handed spider monkeys, Ateles geoffroyi by Jules Dorschner, Laura Teresa Hernandez Salazar, Matthias Laska

“…Abstract Recent research suggests that socio-ecological factors such as dietary specialization and social complexity may be drivers of advanced cognitive skills among primates. Therefore, we assessed the ability of 12 black-handed spider monkeys (Ateles geoffroyi), a highly frugivorous platyrrhine primate with strong fission-fusion dynamics, to succeed in a serial visual reversal learning task. …”

Animal Models of Non-Respiratory, Post-Acute Sequelae of COVID-19 by Abigail Vanderheiden, Michael S. Diamond

“…Here, we discuss three animal models that have been utilized to investigate PASC: non-human primates (NHPs), hamsters, and mice. We focus on neurological, gastrointestinal, and cardiovascular PASC and highlight advances in mechanistic insight that have been made using these animal models, as well as discussing the sequelae that warrant continued and intensive research.…”
