Oregon National Primate Research Center

The Oregon National Primate Research Center at Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) conducts basic and applied biomedical research in three fields frequently identified as priority areas on the nation's agenda for improving human health and well-being: fertility control, early embryo development and women's health -- Division of Reproductive Sciences; brain development and degeneration -- Division of Neuroscience; newly emerging viruses, especially AIDS-related agents --Division of Pathobiology and Immunology. As one of eight such centers supported by the National Center for Research Resources of the National Institutes of Health, the Center is a resource, both local and international, for scores of scientists and several academic and research institutions. Its neighbors on the West Campus of OHSU include the Oregon Graduate Institute, the Neurological Sciences Institute and the Vaccine and Gene Therapy Institute.
