Southwest National Primate Research Center
|
In 1999, the Southwest National Primate Research Center (SNPRC) became the first new NCRR-funded National Primate Research Center (NPRC) in over 35 years. The SNPRC brings a number of unique strengths to the NPRC program, stemming from a long, productive history of nonhuman primate research at its host institution, the Southwest Foundation for Biomedical Research (SFBR). These unique strengths include the worlds largest captive baboon population, the worlds largest and best-characterized pedigreed primate population, the worlds largest group of geneticists committed to research with and management of captive nonhuman primates, one of the largest nonhuman primate census of any NPRC, the largest chimpanzee census of any NRPC, the capacity for nonhuman primate studies in Biocontainment Level 4, and a veterinary technical staff experienced in the management and use of nonhuman primates ranging from chimpanzees to marmosets. |
