Journal ArticleDOI

Control of a mucosal challenge and prevention of AIDS by a multiprotein DNA/MVA vaccine.

TL;DR: DNA priming followed by a recombinant modified vaccinia Ankara (rMVA) booster controlled a highly pathogenic immunodeficiency virus challenge in a rhesus macaque model, providing hope that a relatively simple multiprotein DNA/MVA vaccine can help to control the acquired immune deficiency syndrome epidemic.
Journal ArticleDOI

Differential rearing affects corpus callosum size and cognitive function of rhesus monkeys.

TL;DR: Rearing environment was associated with sustained differences in cross-hemispheric projections, white matter volume and cognitive performance, and cognitive deficits exhibited by the NURSERY animals were significantly correlated with the alterations found in the CC.
Journal ArticleDOI

Patterns of cognitive decline in aged rhesus monkeys.

TL;DR: Significant trends toward progressively higher impairment rates in advanced-aged and oldest-aged monkeys were observed for DNMS-acquisition, DRST-color and spatial reversal learning tasks, suggesting that a score based on only three tests may provide an adequate classification of global cognitive ability.
