What happened on March 15 at a Midwest research and breeding facility is alarming. The alleged break-in raises serious safety concerns. Alleged illegal and violent actions of animal extremists like this don’t advance animal welfare; they delay research that helps pets and people.

Long-tailed macaques are vital to human health — advancing medicine, immunology & cancer research. About 12,500 new drugs are in preclinical development globally, most requiring NHPs for testing. Read NABR’s comment on IUCN’s claim LTMs are endangered: nabr.org/about-nabr/new…

Highly reliable sources tell me @NIH will still fund purely animal model grants (new ones too). NOAs (notice of awards) will be more human focused & justification for animal models must be made but $ for new & funded animal grants will continue. @Nature @ScienceMagazine @HHSGov

The @NIH announcement of no “animal model only” grants is arguably a bigger deal than the pending 40% budget cut. The question is what it really means. e.g., mice + AI = “not pure animal model” grant etc. @NIHDirector_Jay @NIH @HHSGov please clarify. I’m getting Qs galore.

🚨 The U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service has denied a petition to list long-tailed & pig-tailed macaques as endangered under the Endangered Species Act. This decision is a win for biomedical research, as NHPs play a critical role in medical advancements that benefit humans & animals.

of countries where they live. We should all be seriously concerned with the misuse and misrepresentation of scientific data noted in this article, particularly given the importance of long-tailed macaques to ongoing biomedical research in the United States.”
