This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. Primary support for the subproject and the subproject's principal investigator may have been provided by other sources, including other NIH sources. The Total Cost listed for the subproject likely represents the estimated amount of Center infrastructure utilized by the subproject, not direct funding provided by the NCRR grant to the subproject or subproject staff. DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This is a competing renewal application of a cooperative agreement supporting the "Chimpanzee Biomedical Research Resource" (CBRR) at the Michale E. Keeling Center for Comparative Medicine and Research (KCCMR) of The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center in Bastrop, TX. The CBRR is a national research resource of 159 chimpanzees housed within the chimpanzee housing complex of the KCCMR. The CBRR is one of only four research resources in the world capable of conducting biomedical research in this species. Over the past 35 years, the CBRR has developed the highly specialized housing facilities, laboratories, management techniques and staff essential for maintaining chimpanzees and conducting research using this important model. The CBRR's primary objectives continue to focus on colony care and maintenance, provision of the infrastructure needed to conduct studies for investigators who need to access chimpanzees, and conducting studies to enhance the research value of chimpanzees. During the current funding period, we developed an informational website to help scientists assess the suitability of chimpanzees as relevant models for their studies and inform the public of the value of chimpanzees. We plan to continue to make available chimpanzee-derived cell lines, antibodies and other biological materials through the Chimpanzee Experimental Tools and Laboratory Reference Value Registry. The CBRR is organized into three functional cores that include the Resource Management Core, the Behavioral Management Core, and the Resource-related Research Core. Studies supported by the CBRR will continue to emphasize the characterization of the chimpanzee immune system and the numerous collaborative behavioral studies through the Behavioral Management Core. These include studies of the physiologic and immunologic consequences of research manipulations on chimpanzees trained to voluntarily cooperate with research procedures compared to untrained chimpanzees that must be anesthetized. The CBRR will continue to maintain its leadership role in the training of chimpanzees to voluntarily participate in research and clinical manipulations using positive reinforcement techniques. Beginning with this period of support, we plan to categorize all chimpanzees within the CBRR using the G-MARC as described in the RFA-RR-10-008. By expanding and improving the availability of CBRR resources, conducting resource-related research, and containing costs, the CBRR will continue to provide a critically important, highly specialized, research resource that addresses human health needs.

该副本是利用资源的众多研究子项目之一 由NIH/NCRR资助的中心赠款提供。对该子弹的主要支持 而且，副投影的主要研究员可能是其他来源提供的 包括其他NIH来源。 列出的总费用可能 代表subproject使用的中心基础架构的估计量， NCRR赠款不直接向子弹或副本人员提供的直接资金。 描述（由申请人提供）：这是一项合作协议的竞争续订应用，该协议支持“米歇尔E. Keeling比较医学与研究中心（KCCMR）的“黑猩猩生物医学研究资源”（CBRR）。 CBRR是在KCCMR的黑猩猩住房中安置的159个黑猩猩的国家研究资源。 CBRR是世界上仅有的四项研究资源之一，能够在该物种中进行生物医学研究。在过去的35年中，CBRR开发了高度专业化的住房设施，实验室，管理技术和员工，对于使用这种重要模型进行黑猩猩和进行研究至关重要。 CBRR的主要目标继续集中在殖民地护理和维护上，为需要进入黑猩猩的研究人员进行研究所需的基础设施以及进行研究以提高黑猩猩的研究价值。在当前的资助期间，我们开发了一个信息网站，以帮助科学家评估黑猩猩作为其研究模型的适用性，并将黑猩猩的价值告知公众。我们计划通过黑猩猩实验工具和实验室参考价值注册表继续提供黑猩猩衍生的细胞系，抗体和其他生物材料。 CBRR分为三个功能核心，其中包括资源管理核心，行为管理核心和与资源相关的研究核心。 CBRR支持的研究将继续强调黑猩猩免疫系统的表征以及通过行为管理核心进行的众多协作行为研究。这些研究包括研究研究操纵对与必须麻醉的未经训练的黑猩猩自愿合作的黑猩猩的生理和免疫学后果的研究。 CBRR将继续保持其在黑猩猩培训中的领导作用，以使用积极的增强技术自愿参加研究和临床操作。从这段时期开始，我们计划使用RFA-RR-10-008中所述的G-MARC在CBRR中对所有黑猩猩进行分类。通过扩大和改善CBRR资源的可用性，进行与资源相关的研究以及包含成本，CBRR将继续提供一个非常重要的，高度专业化的研究资源，以满足人类健康需求。
