DESCRIPTION:The Neural Code Supporting Multidimensional Social Relationship

  and nonhuman primates alike\, deeper and more numerous social connections
  promote health\, well-being\, and survival. Precisely how primates naviga
 te the multidimensional social relationships that structure daily life and
  shape survival and reproductive success remains a mystery. Here\, we comb
 ine ethological analyses with new wireless recording technologies and comp
 uter vision to uncover neural signatures of natural behavior in unrestrain
 ed\, socially interacting rhesus macaques. Neuronal activity in prefrontal
  and temporal cortex robustly encoded 24 species-typical behaviors\, and a
 lso signaled the presence and identity of neighboring monkeys. Male-female
  partners demonstrated near[1]perfect reciprocity in grooming\, a key beha
 vioral mechanism supporting friendships and alliances\, and neural activit
 y maintained a running account of these social investments. When confronte
 d with an aggressive intruder\, behavioral and neural population responses
  reflected empathy and were buffered by the presence of a partner. Surpris
 ingly\, neural signatures in prefrontal and temporal cortex were largely i
 ndistinguishable and irreducible to visual and motor contingencies. Our wo
 rk reveals a highly distributed neurophysiological ledger of social dynami
 cs\, a potential computational foundation supporting communal life in prim
 ate societies\, including our own.\n
