BIOLOGICAL MATERIAL PROCUREMENT PROGRAM

这个子项目是许多利用资源的研究子项目之一 由NIH/NCRR资助的中心拨款提供。次级项目的主要支助 而子项目的主要调查员可能是由其他来源提供的， 包括其它NIH来源。 为子项目列出的总成本可能 表示子项目使用的中心基础设施的估计数量， NCRR赠款不直接向子项目或子项目工作人员提供资金。 在过去的一年中，通过耶基斯生物材料分发计划收集了大约2,950份非人灵长类动物标本，并提供给93名研究人员。提供给这些研究者的标本包括各种组织;例如，骨髓、血液、眼睛、大脑、活组织检查、肝脏、肾脏、精液和来自五种非人灵长类动物的尿液。 这些标本被提供给26名Yerkes/Emory研究者和67名来自Emory以外美国机构的研究者。 向非耶基斯研究人员提供各种生物标本是对主办机构以及其他区域，国家和国际机构的生物医学研究的重要贡献。 提供给外部研究者的样本每年都会导致一些出版物。 这些标本已被证明是非常有价值的教育目的时，用于本科或研究生课程的解剖学，人类学，免疫缺陷等。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. Primary support for the subproject and the subproject's principal investigator may have been provided by other sources, including other NIH sources. The Total Cost listed for the subproject likely represents the estimated amount of Center infrastructure utilized by the subproject, not direct funding provided by the NCRR grant to the subproject or subproject staff. During the past year, approximately 2,950 nonhuman primate specimens were collected and provided to 93 investigators through Yerkes Biomaterials Distribution Program. Specimens provided to these investigators included a variety of tissues; for example, bone marrow, blood, eyes, brain, biopsies, liver, kidney, semen, and urine from five nonhuman primate species. These specimens were provided to 26 Yerkes/Emory investigators, and 67 investigators at U.S. institutions other than Emory. The provision of various biological specimens to non-Yerkes investigators is an important contribution to biomedical research at the host institution as well as other regional, national, and international institutions. Specimens provided to outside investigators result in a number of publications each year. These specimens have proven to be extremely valuable for educational purposes when used in undergraduate or graduate courses in anatomy, anthropology, immunodeficiency, etc.
