Modelling the Neuropsychopharmacology of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder in the Common Marmoset (Callithrix jacchus)
This thesis extends the understanding of the neural and neurochemical contributions to two forms of behavioural adaptation, reversal learning and contingency degradation, in which stimulus/action–reward contingencies are altered. The results are interpreted within the psychological framework of the …

Characterising trait anxiety in the common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus): investigations into behavioural, psychophysiological and cognitive phenotypes
The major aim of my thesis project has been to develop a non-human primate model of trait anxiety, using a new world monkey, the common marmoset. The first step was to identify animals high or low in trait anxiety. Based on the findings that high trait-anxious individuals display …

Qualitative und quantitative Untersuchungen der Ovarien des in Gefangenschaft lebenden Weißbüschelaffen (Callithrix jacchus) in Relation zu kritischen physiologischen und biochemischen Indikatoren im Zusammenhang mit Übergewicht
Callithrix jacchus ist ein Neuweltprimat mit einer kurzen Generationenfolge, welcher in vielen Bereichen der Forschung eingesetzt wird. Die letzten aus der Wildnis gefangenen Weißbüschelaffen wurden Anfang der 1970ger Jahre nach Europa importiert. Seither sind die in Gefangenschaft lebenden …

Área domiciliar e utilização de recursos alimentares por sagüis Callithrix jacchus na Reserva Particular do Patrimônio Natural RPPN Nossa Senhora do Outeiro de Maracaípe, Ipojuca, PE
Dois grupos vizinhos de Callithrix jacchus (A e B) foram monitorados entre maio e novembro de 2006, numa área de restinga (ecossistema da Mata Atlântica), localizada em uma reserva particular no município de Ipojuca, estado de Pernambuco, nordeste do Brasil (08031 48 S 35001 05 W, ao nível do mar). …

A Behavioral Study on the Adult Marmoset Interference Control in Spatial Working Memory
… disorders. The common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus) is an ideal non-human animal model for studying WM disorders. Previous studies of marmoset WM have used a touch-screen self-ordered sequencing task (SOST), which resembles an n-back paradigm and targets updating processes in …

String-Pulling by the Common Marmoset
… skilled motor control in the common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus). In the first study, we analyzed 15 marmosets of varying ages in their home cages using single-camera markerless motion tracking. In the second study, we analyzed 6 chair-restrained adults using multi-camera 3D tracking. Across …

Differential contributions of subregions of the dorsal anterior cingulate cortex to negative emotion in the common marmoset
… of negative emotion in the common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus). These dACC subregions were targeted with indwelling cannulae to enable pharmacological manipulations to be carried out in a range of tasks, used to assess distinct components of negative emotion, such as conditioned fear and …

Effect of caregiving behaviors and genetic predispositions on human and non-human primates development
… study on a primate model, the marmosets (\textit{Callithrix Jacchus}), focused directly on caregiver-infant dyads applying micro-behavioral analysis during infants' first month of life. Overall findings highlighted a differential importance of environmental and genetic factors in moderating …

Pluripotency and patterning in nonhuman primate embryogenesis
… This thesis examines common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus) development to explore the molecular cues that govern (1) naïve pluripotency in the preimplantation epiblast, and (2) primed pluripotency in the embryonic disc (EmDisc) in the context of anterior-posterior axis patterning. First, …
