Why primate models matter
Kimberley A. Phillips,Karen L. Bales,Karen L. Bales,John P. Capitanio,John P. Capitanio,Alan J Conley,Paul W. Czoty,Bert A. 't Hart,William D. Hopkins,William D. Hopkins,Shiu Lok Hu,Lisa A.

TL;DR: Key areas in biomedicine where primate models have been, and continue to be, essential for advancing fundamental knowledge in biomedical and biological research are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evolution of the cerebellar cortex: the selective expansion of prefrontal-projecting cerebellar lobules.
Joshua H. Balsters,Emma Cussans,Jörn Diedrichsen,Kimberley A. Phillips,Todd M. Preuss,James K. Rilling,Narender Ramnani +6 more
TL;DR: The hypothesis that in the cortico-cerebellar system, functionally related structures evolve in concert with each other supported by comparing the volumes of cerebellar lobules in structural MRI scans in capuchins, chimpanzees and humans.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hand preferences for coordinated bimanual actions in 777 great apes: Implications for the evolution of handedness in Hominins
William D. Hopkins,Kimberley A. Phillips,Amanda E. Bania,Sarah E. Calcutt,Molly Gardner,Jamie L. Russell,Jennifer Schaeffer,Elizabeth V. Lonsdorf,Stephen R. Ross,Steven J. Schapiro +9 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that, contrary to previous claims, population-level handedness is evident in great apes but differs among species as a result of ecological adaptations associated with posture and locomotion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aging of the cerebral cortex differs between humans and chimpanzees
Chet C. Sherwood,Adam D. Gordon,John S. Allen,Kimberley A. Phillips,Joseph M. Erwin,Joseph M. Erwin,Patrick R. Hof,William D. Hopkins,William D. Hopkins +8 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that the increased magnitude of brain structure shrinkage in human aging is evolutionarily novel and the result of an extended lifespan.
Journal ArticleDOI
Primary motor cortex asymmetry is correlated with handedness in capuchin monkeys (Cebus apella).
TL;DR: Cerebral hemispheric specialization for hand preference is not uniquely human and may be more common among primates in general, and structural asymmetries of the primary motor cortex are associated with hand preference.
