过去的二十年来由国立卫生研究院(NIH)资源研究部门资助的地区灵长类研究中心计划,通过对非人灵长类的研究已由致力于心血管方面的研究发展到解决人类健康问题的全国性的重要努力。 1956年当詹姆斯·瓦特博士了解到苏联灵长类研究中心使用灵长类研究高血压的计划后决定前去调查。瓦特被看到的一切所感动,回国后向国立心脏研究所理事会建议在美国创建类似机构。该理事会首先提出在一所大学附近建立一个国立灵长类人工饲养群,以研究心血管疾病。后来这个想法扩大为建立一个灵长类研究中心网,既有全国性的,也有地区性的。这些中心也研究其他许多疾病。
The Regional Primate Research Center, funded by the National Institutes of Health Institute for Resources Research over the past two decades, has progressed from devoted cardiovascular research to addressing human health issues through research on non-human primates The national important efforts. In 1956, when Dr. James Watt learned that the Primate Research Center of Primate Center for Primate Studies used primate to study hypertension, he decided to go after the investigation. Watts was touched by what he saw and after returning to the National Institute of Cardiology council proposed to create a similar institution in the United States. The council first proposed setting up a national primate farmyard near a university to study cardiovascular diseases. This idea was later expanded to establish a network of primate research centers, both nationally and regionally. These centers also study many other diseases.
