Research Primate Facilities
Research primate facilities are specialized environments where non-human primates, such as monkeys and apes, are housed for scientific studies. These facilities support research aimed at understanding health conditions, developing treatments, or advancing science, often involving behavioral, medical, or genetic investigations. They follow strict ethical guidelines to ensure the animals' well-being and minimize suffering, including proper housing, care, and enriched environments. The goal is to balance scientific progress with humane treatment, ensuring the animals are cared for responsibly while contributing valuable insights for medicine and biology.
