This Project Grant award from the National Institutes of Health (NIH), under the Trans-NIH Research Support program (CFDA 93.310), provides $3,999,041 to Tulane University to expand its Specific Pathogen-Free (SPF) rhesus macaque breeding colony. The funding will be used to construct new indoor/outdoor enclosures to increase the colony's capacity and housing flexibility, in order to meet the growing national demand for SPF rhesus macaques to support HIV/AIDS-related research at Tulane and...
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) awarded a $3,999,070 Project Grant under the Trans-NIH Research Support program (CFDA 93.310) to the University of Louisiana at Lafayette's New Iberia Research Center (NIRC) to expand its macaque breeding capacity. The funding will support the construction of two new multi-run housing buildings with a total capacity of 1,600 macaque breeders and their offspring. This expansion is critical to accommodate the rapidly increasing research programs at NIRC,...
This federal Project Grant award of $349,501 from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) under the Research Infrastructure Programs (CFDA 93.351) will support the purchase and installation of pen housing for breeding groups of pigtail macaques (Macaca nemestrina) at the Washington National Primate Research Center (WANPRC) in Seattle, WA. The grant, which runs from July 1, 2024 to June 30, 2025, aims to increase the efficiency of the WANPRC's Seattle breeding program, improve animal welfare...
This $350,000 Project Grant award from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) under the Research Infrastructure Programs (CFDA 93.351) will support the modernization of the specific pathogen-free (SPF) rodent housing facilities at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine's Institute for Animal Studies. The funding will enable the replacement of the current static, filter-top microisolator cages with new racks and individually ventilated cages. This enhancement will improve the biosafety and...
This Project Grant award from the National Institutes of Health's Research Infrastructure Programs (CFDA 93.351) provides $263,250 to Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) from July 1, 2024 to June 30, 2026. The award will fund the development of innovative technologies to accelerate the creation of transgenic non-human primate models, specifically rhesus macaques, for biomedical research. Key objectives include generating founder animals with a "docking site" integrated into a...
This Project Grant award from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Research Infrastructure Programs (CFDA 93.351) provides $1,083,750.00 to Emory University to acquire an Illumina NovaSeq X Plus high-throughput DNA sequencing system for the Emory National Primate Research Center Genomics Core (GENCORe). The new sequencing system will enable the GENCORe to decrease turnaround time, reduce sequencing costs, and increase the volume of samples that can be processed simultaneously. This...
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) awarded Emory University a $364,000 Project Grant under the Research Infrastructure Programs (CFDA 93.351) to develop an artificial thymic organoid platform to study T cell development and HIV/SIV infection using the SIV/macaque model of HIV/AIDS. The key objectives of this project are to: 1) investigate the impact of hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) dysfunction on distinct thymocyte population characteristics during SIV infection; 2) examine the host and...
This $971,117 Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) will fund the Coordinating Center for Primate Aging Research (CCPAR), a joint effort led by the Tulane National Primate Research Center, California National Primate Research Center, and Baylor College of Medicine. The CCPAR will coordinate and enhance the work of primate aging researchers across multiple sites, facilitate data integration, and develop resources to improve the quality and...
This Project Grant award from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) under the Research Infrastructure Programs (CFDA 93.351) provides $781,525 to the University of California, Davis to enhance the rigor and reproducibility of translational nonhuman primate models for genetic and regenerative therapies. The key objectives are to: (1) use total-body positron emission tomography (PET) imaging to longitudinally monitor gene transfer and biodistribution in preclinical studies of fetal or juvenile...
This $418,364 Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 Aging Research) will support a comprehensive study of lifespan and biological aging in nonhuman primates (NHPs). The primary objectives are to: Generate the most accurate and comprehensive characterization to date of sex-specific lifespan and age-at-death distributions for 11 biomedically-relevant NHP species. This will test the influence of factors like body size and reproduction on lifespan across species....
