Implanting electrodes into monkey brains causes neurological and behavioral changes
Implanting and activating electrodes in monkey brains reliably alters neural activity, cortical plasticity, and behavioral outcomes.
The retrieved papers consistently show that microstimulation and electrode implants in nonhuman primate brains result in neurophysiological and behavioral modulation, supporting the claim.
Arash Afraz. Behavioral optogenetics in nonhuman primates; a psychological perspective. 2023. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.crneur.2023.100101
Discusses using optogenetic stimulation and intracortical devices to perturb neural activity and measure behavioral effects in nonhuman primates.

Shows that phase-specific intracortical microstimulation modulates local network oscillations, reaction times, and task success rates in monkeys.

Demonstrates that electrical stimulation protocols induce cortical plasticity (spike-timing-dependent plasticity), altering neural responses in the primate sensorimotor cortex.
