The are media reports that NIH will be retiring 110 research chimpanzees from the New Iberia Research Center in Louisiana. One account is provided by the Washington Post and can be read here: http://www.washingtonpost.com/national/health-science/nih-moves-to-retire-110-research-chimpanzees/2012/09/21/4a7a2904-03f9-11e2-8102-ebee9c66e190_story.html
Looks like research with chimpanzees will continue to be cut back until only a small number are used for special research purposes. -Mike Palij New York University [email protected] --- You are currently subscribed to tips as: [email protected].
