We generated genome assemblies — models of genomes that are created by pasting together short lengths of sequenced DNA — for 187 primate species 3. We then aligned the whole human genome to assemblies ...

A team at the Hübner and Diecke Labs at the Max Delbrück Center has shown how human and non-human primate hearts differ genetically. The study, published in Nature Cardiovascular Research, reveals ...

A new investigation led by Tomàs Marquès-Bonet, an ICREA researcher at the IBE (CSIC-UPF) and a professor of Genetics at the Department of Medicine and Life Sciences (MELIS) at Pompeu Fabra University ...

Scientists call this phenomenon emotional mimicry. Biologists and psychologists consider this automatic matching of another’s ...

Humans perceive emotional expressions displayed by non-human primates and spontaneously mimic these expressions, according to ...

Researchers from 24 countries have analyzed the genomes of 809 individuals from 233 primate species, generating the most complete catalog of genomic information about our closest relatives to date.

In a world first, scientists from 24 countries have mapped the DNA of more than 233 different primate species, more than quadrupling the existing genetic data, providing crucial new insights into ...
