Potential trade‐off between olfactory and visual discrimination learning in common marmosets ( Callithrix jacchus )
Olfactory dysfunction has been identified as an early biomarker for dementia risk but has rarely been assessed in nonhuman primate models of human aging. To better characterize common marmosets as such models, we assessed olfactory discrimination performance in a sample of 10 animals (5 females), aged 2.5−8.9 years old. The monkeys were proficient in the discrimination and reversal of visual stimuli but naïve to odor stimuli. For olfactory discri…
The marmoset as an important primate model for longitudinal studies of neurocognitive aging
Age‐related cognitive decline has been extensively studied in humans, but the majority of research designs are cross‐sectional and compare across younger and older adults. Longitudinal studies are necessary to capture variability in cognitive aging trajectories but are difficult to carry out in humans and long‐lived nonhuman primates. Marmosets are an ideal primate model for neurocognitive aging as their naturally short lifespan facilitates longi…
