OR/WA COLLABORATIVE GENETICS RESEARCH PROGRAM

这个子项目是许多研究子项目中的一个 由NIH/NCRR资助的中心赠款提供的资源。子项目及 研究者（PI）可能从另一个NIH来源获得了主要资金， 因此可以在其他CRISP条目中表示。所列机构为 研究中心，而研究中心不一定是研究者所在的机构。 OR/WA协作遗传学研究计划是由华盛顿和俄勒冈州国家灵长类动物研究中心共同资助的一项共同努力。该计划的目的是发展和支持两个中心的遗传研究调查，并促进两个中心之间的合作项目。该计划包括：1）改进用于遗传研究的基因分型方法，2）启动表型研究以确定潜在的动物模型并开发新的遗传研究项目，3）为研究人员启动的遗传研究提供技术培训和专业知识。 在过去的一年里，ONPRC和WaNPRC之间发起了一项研究，以探索两个NPRC猕猴自发性SIB的遗传基础。 为了支持这一冒险，基因型测定被开发出来以测试候选的遗传关联。 此外，我们启动了一项扩展的SNP测定，用于验证恒河猴和食蟹猴的祖先。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. The OR/WA Collaborative Genetics Research Program is a joint effort funded equally by the Washington and Oregon National Primate Research Centers. The purpose of this program is to develop and support genetic research investigations at both Centers and to promote collaborative projects between the two centers. The program encompasses 1) improving genotyping methods for use in genetic studies, 2) initiating phenotypic studies to identify potential animal models and to develop new genetic research projects, 3) providing technical training and expertise for investigator initiated genetic research. In the past year, acollaboration was initiated between the ONPRC and the WaNPRC to explore the genetic basis of spontaneous SIB in macaques at both NPRCs. In support of this venture, genotype assays were developed to test candidate genetic associations. In addition, we launched an expanded SNP assay for verifying the ancestry of rhesus and cynomolgus macaques.
