The CNPRC is a part of the National Primate Research Centers Program and is dedicated to improving human and animal health.
The CNPRC is one of eight such centers supported by the National Center for Research Resources, a division of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). The National Primate Research Centers are a unique resource for investigators studying human health and disease, offering the opportunity to assess the causes of disease, and new treatment methods in nonhuman primate models that closely recapitulate humans. Research performed at the CNPRC and other National Primate Research Centers provides necessary information before proceeding to clinical trials in humans, leading to new drugs, therapies and surgical procedures that benefit human health and quality of life.
