The evolutionary journey from primitive plesiadapiforms to early primates during the Paleocene and Eocene epochs represents a critical chapter in mammalian history. Fossil records from these periods ...

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.

BUFFALO, N.Y. ­­ ­ ­­— Saliva is a bodily fluid most of us take for granted despite the significant roles it plays: aiding in digestion, maintaining strong teeth and defending against oral disease.
