Researchers at Oregon Health & Science University have developed the first transgenic nonhuman primate model—genetically modified to carry a human gene—for studying hepatitis B virus. The breakthrough ...
An extensive review of research on wild primate social networks and parasites underscores the importance of super-spreaders, or central individuals that play an outsized role in transmission of a ...

Research on human physiology and on prevention, treatments, and cures for disease relies on model systems with sufficient complexity, and nonhuman primates are used in biomedical research to meet ...
An experimental tripeptide called DT-109 reversed advanced fatty liver disease in animal models by repairing the intestinal ...
Genetic engineering in non-human primates has long been limited by the need for virus-based gene delivery methods. Recently, researchers in Japan successfully used a nonviral system to introduce a ...
The most frequently used mpox vaccine provides partial immunity to the disease but isn't always able to prevent severe symptoms or disease transmission. A new vaccine candidate from Moderna, mRNA-1769 ...
