The findings highlight the need for long-term monitoring of children exposed to the virus, say scientists. 

The approach, which has never before been successfully attempted in primates, could lead to improved animal models for human biology and disease.

Life at the bottom of the pecking order ramps up inflammation, according to new research, an effect that appears to be reversible.

A cytomegalovirus-based vaccine eliminated simian immunodeficiency virus from rhesus macaques, raising hopes of a similarly effective HIV vaccine.

Researchers can see the differences in the neuronal activity of monkeys that use different strategies to reach out to a target.

In rhesus macaques, an individual's drop in the social hierarchy leads to overactive immune genes and, possibly, poor health.

Gene expression controlled from afar may have spurred the spurt in brain evolution that led to modern humans.
