Research

The Tulane National Primate Research Center is involved in a variety of important multidisciplinary projects focusing on areas of biomedical research with high priority concerns for human health. This section, which is intended for the interested researcher, scientist or investigator, provides information on those research programs and projects.

The functions of each research program and project are discussed within the parameters of each division’s research, research resources and educational and training opportunities. Many of the diseases we investigate at the TNPRC fall within the area of research of multiple divisions.
