Abstract

Advancing psychiatry requires understanding brain malfunction at a microscopic scale, where neurons and synapses operate under constraints imposed by behavior, cognition, and neural architecture. Nonhuman primates are unmatched in approximating the structural and computational environment of the human brain.
