Monkey see, Monkey reach: Action selection of reaching movements in the macaque monkey

Myocardial Infarction in a Rhesus Monkey

Myocardial necrosis can be result from a number of causes including nutritional deficiencies, chemical and plant toxins, ischemia and metabolic disorder. The outcome of myocardial necrosis varies depending on the extent of the damage (Donald 2001, Jubb 1993, Radostits 1994, Vanvaleet 1986). Myocardial infarction without demonstrable of atherosclerosis were reported in a rhesus macaque (Gonder 1...

Hand kinematics during reaching and grasping in the macaque monkey.

In this paper, we develop an animal model of prehension movements by examining the kinematics of reaching and grasping in monkeys and by comparing the results to published data on humans. Hand movements were recorded in three dimensions in monkeys who were trained to either point at visual targets under unperturbed and perturbed conditions, or to reach and grasp 3-D objects. The results reveale...

The influence of environmental parameters on the abundance of monkey goby, Neogobius pallasi (Berg, 1916), in Kaboodval and Shirabad Streams, Golestan Province, Iran

The aim of this study was to determine the influence of environmental parameters onthe abundance of monkey goby Neogobius pallasi. A total of 526 and 163 individuals ofmonkey goby specimens were caught by electro-shocker in the Kaboodval and Shirabad Streams, respectively. The ranges of total length of the specimens in Kaboodval and Shirabad Streams were respectively 22-137.55 mm and 32.64-137....

Comparative titration of Poliomyelitis antibodies in Monkey Kidney, Hela, and FL Amnion cell

Evidence for both reaching and grasping activity in the medial parieto-occipital cortex of the macaque.

In humans, the caudal pole of the superior parietal lobule is involved in the control of both reaching and grasping movements, whereas in monkey it is reported to be involved only in the control of reaching. Using single-unit recordings from trained macaque monkeys, we investigated whether area V6A, a visuomotor area located in the caudal part of the posterior parietal cortex, is involved in bo...
