To facilitate a critical part of the central mission of the NPRC program by providing access to nonhuman primate resources to affiliate scientists. The unit provides assistance to affiliate scientists who wish to use the resources of the TNPRC, but do not have an established collaboration with TNPRC core scientists. The unit also assists core investigators who have established collaborations with affiliate scientists to assure that access to resources is efficient.
