EXTRAMURAL RESEARCH FACILITIES CONSTRUCTION

描述（由申请人提供）： 该威斯康星州国家灵长类动物研究中心（NPRC）正在规划一个专门的研究设施（SRF）被列入医学院的跨学科研究综合体（IRC）。我们的NPRC的SRF将允许非人类灵长类动物研究空间的急需扩展，特别是为快速增长的干细胞移植领域服务。此外，将SRF安置在IRC内，为UW医院和诊所以及Waisman中心的移植外科医生和干细胞科学家以及医学院和Keck生物成像实验室的成像设施提供了关键的接近度。在IRC中完成SRF可以有效地利用C06资金，因为IRC外壳将与其他支持一起构建，并且通过将非人类灵长类动物（NHP）研究IRC置于NPRC的控制之下，可以提供行政和管理效率。 具体而言，本报告所要求的支助将能够：  建造6间可容纳168只成年猕猴的房间和3间相邻的治疗室供这些动物使用（见图8）  建造笼架清洗设施（见附录2，图13）  建设4个专业检测室（见附件2，图8）  购买设备：灵长类动物笼和笼清洗机 该项目（6，061 ASF）的完成将使PHS支持的研究更有效地扩展和更接近使用NHP，特别是在干细胞生物学和再生医学领域，医学院的医生和科学家。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Wisconsin National Primate Research Center (NPRC) is planning a Specialized Research Facility (SRF) to be included in the Medical School's Interdisciplinary Research Complex (IRC). Our NPRC's SRF will allow for much-needed expansion of non-human primate research space, particularly to serve the rapidly growing area of stem cell transplantation. Furthermore, siting the SRF within the IRC provides critical proximity to transplant surgeons and stem cell scientists at the UW Hospital and Clinics and at the Waisman Center, as well as to imaging facilities at the Medical School and Keck Biological Imaging Laboratory. Finishing out the SRF in the IRC makes efficient use of this C06 funding, because IRC shell will be built with other support, and it provides administrative and managerial efficiency by bringing non-human primate (NHP) research IRC under control of the NPRC. Specifically, the support requested herein will enable:  Construction of 6 rooms for housing up to 168 adult macaques and 3 adjacent treatment rooms for use of these animals (see Fig. 8)  Construction of a cage rack washing facility (see Appendix 2, Fig. 13)  Construction of four specialty-testing rooms (see Appendix 2, Fig. 8)  Purchase of equipment: primate caging and cage washer Completion of this project (6,061 ASF) will enable efficient expansion and greater proximity of PHS supported research-using NHP, particularly in areas of stem cell biology and regenerative medicine, to physicians and scientists at the Medical School.
