Generation of chimpanzee induced pluripotent stem cell lines for cross-species comparisons
As humans’ closest living relatives, chimpanzees offer valuable insights into human evolution. However, technical and ethical limitations hinder...

Detailed map** of the complex fiber structure and white matter pathways of the chimpanzee brain
Long-standing questions about human brain evolution may only be resolved through comparisons with close living evolutionary relatives, such as...

A case of suspected chimpanzee scavenging in the Issa Valley, Tanzania
Like humans, chimpanzees ( Pan troglodytes ) are well known for their vertebrate and invertebrate hunting, but they rarely scavenge. In contrast, while...

The ecology and epidemiology of malaria parasitism in wild chimpanzee reservoirs
Chimpanzees ( Pan troglodytes ) harbor rich assemblages of malaria parasites, including three species closely related to P. falciparum (sub-genus Laverania...

Sketches of chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes) hoo’s: vowels by any other name?
In human speech, the close back rounded vowel /u/ (the vowel in “boot”) is articulated with the tongue arched toward the dorsal boundary of the hard...

Dead-infant carrying by chimpanzee mothers in the Budongo Forest
It has been suggested that non-human primates can respond to deceased conspecifics in ways that suggest they experience psychological states not...

Might Diet, APOE-APOA1 Axis, and Iron Metabolism Provide Clues About the Discrepancy in Alzheimer’s Disease Occurrence Between Humans and Chimpanzees? A Bioinformatics-Based Re-Analysis of Gene Expression Data on Mice Fed with Human and Chimpanzee Diets
The emergence of conflicting reports on the natural occurrence of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) in non-human primates has prompted research on the...

Field experiments find no evidence that chimpanzee nut cracking can be independently innovated
Cumulative culture has been claimed a hallmark of human evolution. Yet, the uniqueness of human culture is heavily debated. The zone of latent...

Caveats of chimpanzee ChAdOx1 adenovirus-vectored vaccines to boost anti-SARS-CoV-2 protective immunity in mice
AbstractSeveral COVID-19 vaccines use adenovirus vectors to deliver the SARS-CoV-2 spike (S) protein. Immunization with these vaccines promotes...

Species richness, relative abundance and occupancy of ground-dwelling mammals denote the ineffectiveness of chimpanzee as flagship species
In conservation biology, flagship species are defined as species that can raise support for biodiversity conservation in a given place or social...

Occupancy of Sympatric Central Chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes troglodytes) and Western Lowland Gorilla (Gorilla gorilla gorilla) in Campo Ma’an Conservation Area, Southern Cameroon
Sympatric primate species coexist in tropical communities through interactions with the abiotic environment and other species. Determining the...

Heterologous prime-boost immunizations with chimpanzee adenoviral vectors elicit potent and protective immunity against SARS-CoV-2 infection
A safe and effective vaccine for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is urgently needed to tackle the COVID-19 global...
