Описание: Despite many encouraging developments in the field of animal-free technologies, well-defined animal models are still needed to study fundamental properties of human diseases and to develop new prophylactic and therapeutic treatments against human diseases. Non-human primates (NHP) make up only a small, but important, part of the total number of animals used in biomedical and preclinical research. Due to their close phylogenetic relationship and the shared susceptibility to many human diseases, NHP can provide important research models to study these diseases and, as such, play a critical role in the advancement of various areas in the medical field. Studies in NHP have contributed to our understanding of various diseases and fundamental biological phenomena and they continue to be important in the development of new therapies, treatments, drugs and vaccines. Moreover, NHP models also contribute to our general knowledge of the processes that underlie non-disease and disease conditions. Important areas where NHP can provide important information include (emerging) infectious diseases, organ transplantation, neurological and aging-related disorders. Although not covered in this book due to time constraints, the need for, and benefits of, NHP models has been demonstrated most recently in the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. The present book is the second of two volumes and covers important disease areas where NHP are used as model species. This volume includes different chapters on NHP models in infectious diseases, aging, neurodegenerative disorders, organ transplantation and cancer.
Описание: This edited volume is the first compendium of archaeoprimatological studies. Written by a culturally diverse group of scholars, it explores the relationships between humans and nonhuman primates from deep in time to more recent historical times. It will interest researchers and graduate students in primatology, bioanthropology and zooarchaeology.

Описание: This book provides comprehensive and up-to-date chapters from experts on the cognition of non-human primates, and describes how primate cognition is studied in labs, zoos, sanctuaries, and in the field. It analyses issues of replicability, open-access, and ethics, with strong emphasis on comparative approaches.

Описание: The Handbook of Primate Behavioral Management (HPBM) fills a void in the scientific literature, providing those who work with nonhuman primates (NHP) with a centralized reference for many issues related to the care and management of captive nonhuman primates. While there are numerous publications scattered throughout the literat

Описание: Written for students and researchers interested in how primates, including ourselves, evolved, Primate and Human Evolution explores evolutionary anthropology from a broad comparative perspective, and presents a new model of human origins that does not depend solely on global climatic change.
