1. Primate community of the tropical rain forests of Saracá-Taqüera National Forest, Pará, Brazil
O Brasil tem o maior número de espécies de primatas do mundo, e a Amazônia é uma das mais ricas florestas, com 15 (cerca de 90%) dos gêneros de primatas neotropicais. Embora considerados elementos essenciais nas estratégias atuais de conservação, de modo geral há grande escassez de informação sobre os primatas das áreas protegidas na região. Apr

2. ESTIMATIVAS DE DETECÇÃO DE PRIMATAS E VALIDAÇÃO DE MODELOS PREDITIVOS EM DUAS UNIDADES DE CONSERVAÇÃO NA AMAZÔNIA, RORAIMA, BRASIL
This study compared the detection of common primate species in the Viruá National Park and in Ecological Station of Maracá, the detections with environmental variables and the generalities of predictive models were tested. We collected data from the primate community of 10 km daily by linear transect method in five campaigns of 60 km in each area. Data on

3. Estudos populacionais dos primatas em duas florestas nacionais do oeste do Pará, Brasil / Population study of primates in two national forests in western State of Pará, Brazil
As pessoas do senso comum repetem os equívocos dos primeiros exploradores europeus quanto ao número de animais visíveis na Amazônia. Induzidas no passado pela grandeza do próprio bioma e incertezas do que existia além das matas ciliares, ou modernamente por programas televisivos, pressupõem a existência de grandes concentrações de animais selvagens

4. Infection of Nonhuman Primate Cells by Pig Endogenous Retrovirus
The ongoing shortage of human donor organs for transplantation has catalyzed new interest in the application of pig organs (xenotransplantation). One of the biggest concerns about the transplantation of porcine grafts into humans is the transmission of pig endogenous retroviruses (PERV) to the recipients or even to other members of the community. Although no

5. Social structure of primate interaction networks facilitates the emergence of cooperation
Animal cooperation has puzzled biologists for a long time as its existence seems to contravene the basic notion of evolutionary biology that natural selection favours ‘selfish’ genes that promote only their own well-being. Evolutionary game theory has shown that cooperators can prosper in populations of selfish individuals if they occur in clusters, inte

6. Preclinical development of monoclonal antibodies: Considerations for the use of non-human primates
The development of mAbs remains high on the therapeutic agenda for the majority of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies. Often, the only relevant species for preclinical safety assessment of mAbs are non-human primates (NHPs), and this raises important scientific, ethical and economic issues. To investigate evidence-based opportunities to minimize the
