This volume demonstrates the role of cellular mechanisms in the production of specializations defining primates with respect to locomotion, energetics and diet. We highlight how genetic analysis, visualization of cells and tissues, and merging Evo-Devo with cell biology combine...

Many complex traits define the primate condition, including behaviors as fundamental as locomotion and traits as scrutinized as the dentition, and their study reveals dramatic evolutionary change across the primates. Genetic modifications are at the basis of these changes,...
