Segmentation of Subcortical Structures from Nonhuman Primate MRI
… two structures from a group of alcohol-dependent Rhesus Macaque monkeys. Using the Level Set Deformable Model (LSDM) with a priori structural information, a series of T1-weighted MR images of Rhesus Macaque hippocampi and striatum were segmented in an effort to compare the structural hippocampal …

A Comparative Study of the Pathology and Pathophysiology of Severe Malaria in a Non-Human Primate Model
… in the Philippines in the early 1960s in Rhesus macaque monkeys and has been evaluated sporadically as a potential platform for comparative studies of Plasmodium falciparum induced severe and cerebral malaria in humans. Using 30 years worth of archival samples at the Armed Forces Research …

Aquaporin 4 and Kir4.1 Distribution in Retinal Glial Cells of Normal Macaque Eyes and Eyes with Experimental Glaucoma
… in the Müller glia and astrocytes of the normal macaque monkey retina and to see how the distribution changed in eyes with experimental glaucoma. Methods: Five Rhesus macaque monkeys, ranging in age from 7 to 11 years, had experimental glaucoma induced in one eye by argon laser scarification of …

From Face Perception to Individual Recognition: The Missing Link
… (fMRI), we measured whole brain activity in macaques while they were watching pictures of other monkey faces that were either long-term acquaintances, visually familiar, or totally unfamiliar. In comparison to unfamiliar faces, the entire face-processing network showed increased activity in …

Information Encoding by Individual Neurons and Groups of Neurons in the Primary Visual Cortex
… in the primary visual cortices of anesthetized macaque monkeys. The goal is to examine the degree to which visual information is encoded into the times of action potentials in those responses (as opposed to the overall rate), and also into the identity of the neuron that fires each action …

Impact of Thymectomy on the Peripheral T Cell Pool in the Context of SIV Infection
… the development of this technique in the rhesus macaque model and use this method in combination with other techniques to study the role of the thymus in maintenance of the peripheral T cell pool. This study has two major goals: to define the role of the thymus in peripheral T cell …
