Abstract:
Sexual dimorphism, differences between males and females of the same species, is widespread in mammals. However, good animal models to study human sexually dimorphic phenotypes are currently lacking. In this issue, DeCasien et al.1 explore the potential of rhesus macaque as a model for investigating sexually dimorphic traits in the human brain.
