Limited Competition: National Primate Research Centers (P51) (Clinical Trials Not Allowed)

This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) encourages grant applications that support the activities of the National Primate Research Centers (NPRCs). Nonhuman primates (NHPs) are most closely related to humans, both physiologically and genetically, and are critical animal models for basic and translational research aimed at understanding human biology. The NPRCs provide resources to investigators who utilize NHPs in biomedical research, complementing and enabling the missions of the NIH Institutes and Centers. Key aspects of this opportunity include: * Supporting the activities of the National Primate Research Centers * Providing resources for investigators utilizing NHPs in biomedical research * Complementing and enabling the missions of the NIH Institutes and Centers * Focusing on basic and translational research aimed at understanding human biology
