Reconstructing the viral histories of human, simian and prosimian immunodeficiency viruses across multiple evolutionary timescales
Abstract. The evolutionary history of simian and prosimian immunodeficiency viruses (SIVs and pSIVs) remains difficult to resolve, because divergence-time

I studied primatology in undergrad, and learned that monkey and prosimian researchers generally dislike chimps because they’re mean and violent. One of my professors watched chimps kill all of the monkeys she had been following for months. They didn’t eat them, either. She just screamed.

Interesting that it is NOT a primate or prosimian.

Tarsier magnet you say. Prosimian you say.

I am just outraged on behalf of our prosimian cousin, the POTTO.

Lemur paws are actually blessed, but i guess thats because they’re prosimian

Lemurs are the prosimian primates of Madagascar and found nowhere else in the world. More than 110 lemur species inhabit this island nation through a wide variety of ecosystems. With 98% of lemurs threatened with extinction, they are the world’s most endangered primate group.

What's so special about Asia's prosimians? They are, indeed, unique and wacky! From a venomous species — one of few venomous mammals — to eyes larger than brains, these nocturnal primates will surely surprise you. And, by the way…what IS a prosimian? You’ll find out here! youtu.be/RrbZ_a6RiOw

and plus, this is like. great-ape level prosimian. never not cool

Children and this dude. Though idk if our arboreal ancestors would actually approve of this project. There’s a prosimian somewhere in my brain that really objects to it

New Print Alert! A fun collab with Kathy Meek at MSU. Led by talented bioinformatician Giovanni Pascarella we demonstrate that Ku70/80 binds intronic antisense Alu elements to inhibit cryptic splice sites. For details see the thread below! 1/n

Ku limits aberrant mRNA splicing promoted by intronic antisense Alu elements
Alu elements are short repeats that occupy approximately 10% of the human genome. Saturation of primate genomes with Alu sequences occurred at the prosimian/new-world monkey evolutionary juncture. Alu...

ah. your eyes have been opened. welcome to you ape, primate and prosimian journey. if you have any monkey related questions, please feel free to let me know.

yes he is! as to where grover would be classified within the evolutionary cladistics of class mammalia, that's when i would start sweating. personally i'd wager he's a prosimian primate like an aye-aye, but until i dissect grover i couldn't be sure
