Abstract:
Humans have a tendency to engage in economically irrational behaviors such as gambling, which typically leads to long-term financial losses. While there has been much research on human gambling behavior, relatively little work has been done to explore the evolutionary origins of this behavior. To examine the adaptive pressures that may have led to this seemingly irrational behavior in humans, nonhuman primates were tested to explore their reactions to gambling type scenarios. Several experiments based on traditional human economic experiments were adapted for use with a wider variety of primat

Abstract:
The host restriction factor TRIM5α mediates a post-entry, pre-integration block to retroviral infection that depends upon recognition of the viral capsid by the TRIM5α PRYSPRY domain. The two predominant alleles of rhesus macaque TRIM5α (rhTRIM5αQ and rhTRIM5αTFP) restrict HIV 1, but cannot restrict the macaque-adapted virus SIVmac239. To investigate how TRIM5α recognizes retroviral capsids, we exploited the differential sensitivities of these two viruses to identify gain-of-sensitivity mutations in SIVmac239, and we solved the structure of the SIVmac239 capsid N-terminal domain.

Quadrupedal animals commonly appear in films and video games, and their locomotion is of interests to several research and industrial communities. Because of the difficulty of handling and motion capturing these animals, physics-based animation is a promising method for synthesizing quadrupedal locomotion. In this thesis, we investigate control strategies for animating a gorilla model, as an example of primate quadrupeds. We review the state of the art in quadrupedal animation and robotics, and in particular a control framework designed for a simulated dog. We investigate the essential control

Morphological and biochemical analysis of HxB2 Env as well as CD4-Env chimeras revealed two functional endocytosis motifs, the membrane proximal GY712XX0 motif and the C-terminal dileucine motif.

Abstract:
This thesis investigates a set of non-classical visual receptive field properties observed in the primate brain. Two main phenomena were explored. The first phenomenon was neurons with head-centered visual receptive fields, in which a neuron responds maximally to a visual stimulus in the same head-centered location across all eye positions. The second phenomenon was perisaccadic receptive field dynamics, which involves a range of experimentally observed response behaviours of an eye-centered neuron associated with the advent of a saccade that relocates the neuron's receptive field.

This thesis describes the analysis of transgenic pigs expressing the human regulatory protein decay-accelerating factor (HDAF). The first part of this research was aimed at proving the success of the genetic manipulation undertaken, by demonstrating the existence of HDAF in these transgenic pigs. These studies, conducted on PBMC from founder animals, provided evidence that both lymphocytes and monocytes from most transgenic pigs analysed express the HDAF protein. As altered expression and function of human proteins in transgenic pigs had previously been reported, the HDAF was further character
