Heterogeneity of the infant stage of rat development: inflammatory pain response, depression-related behavior, and effects of prenatal stress.

23 Jun 2009 The infant stage of rat development is a very important period for potential correction of adverse consequences produced by negative prenatal events. However the age limit for this correction needs to be investigated. The last prenatal and first two ... Read more...

Successful behavioral strategy to unite mother and infant rhesus monkeys (Macaca mulatta) after cesarean delivery.

30 May 2009 Developmental studies of pre- to postnatal continuities in rhesus monkeys sometimes require infants be reared with their mothers. However, complications during pregnancy or experimental designs may require cesarean delivery. Owing to lack of ... Read more...

Delayed onset of vocal recognition in Australian sea lion pups (Neophoca cinerea).

4 May 2009 In pinnipeds, maternal care strategies and colony density may influence a species' individual recognition system. We examined the onset of vocal recognition of mothers by Australian sea lion pups (Neophoca cinerea). At 2 months of age, pups ... Read more...
