What changes in neural architecture account for the emergence and expansion of dexterity
in primates? Dexterity, or skill in performing motor tasks, depends on the ability to generate�…

Marmosets display remarkable vocal motor abilities. Macaques do not. What is it about the
marmoset brain that enables its skill in the vocal domain? We examined the cortical control�…

Introduction Our limited understanding of the mechanisms that trigger the emergence of
Alzheimer's disease (AD) has contributed to the lack of interventions that stop, prevent, or�…

Consensus is rapidly building to support a role for the cerebellum beyond motor function, but
its contributions to non-motor learning remain poorly understood. Here, we provide�…

The central nervous system both influences and is influenced by the gastrointestinal system.
Most research on this gut–brain connection has focused on how ascending signals from the�…

Even the simplest movements are generated by a remarkably complex pattern of muscle
activity. Fast, accurate movements at a single joint are produced by a stereotyped pattern�…

Important insights into cerebellar function can be gained from an anatomical analysis of
cerebellar output. Recent studies using transsynaptic tracers in nonhuman primates�…

INTRODUCTION Fundamental questions remain about the key mechanisms that initiate
Alzheimer's disease (AD) and the factors that promote its progression. Here we report the�…

Background There has been a growing interest in the utility of the common marmoset
(Callithrix jacchus) as a model system for Alzheimer's disease (AD). As a translational model�…

Abstract Background The common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus) has emerged as an
important model for studying Alzheimer's disease (AD). Several previous publications�…
