The Department of Health and Human Services is offering the BRAIN Initiative Marmoset Colonies Grant to support neuroscience research using common marmosets. This grant aims to address the scarcity of marmosets for research purposes, as these primates show behavioral similarities to humans and can transmit genetic information. Applications are welcome until October 3, 2019, 12:00 AM EDT.

Description: | The common marmoset has recently emerged as a promising model system to understand the primate brain. In particular, marmoset behavior is similar in many ways to human behavior and the technology for germ line transmission of exogenous genetic information is now possible. However, existing colonies and commercial sources are currently unable to provide sufficient marmosets for neuroscience research. |
