Summary:

Developing better therapies for neurological conditions such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's diseases remains an enduring problem for 21st century medicine. The testing of novel therapies will continue to require a robust experimental animal model. The marmoset is an ideal animal model for modern neurological research because of the species' convenient body size, ease of handling, and the fundamental similarity of its neuroanatomy to the human brain.The Stereotaxic and Chemoarchitectural Atlas of the Brain of the Common Marmoset (Callithrix jacchus)</STRONG
