Abstract:

The Institute of Primate Research, a part of the National Museums of Kenya, performs both field and laboratory studies on a wide variety of primates on-site in Kenya. Focusing on conservation biology, reproductive health and biology, infectious diseases, and animal sciences and care, the Institute of Primate Research directs various programs under each of these four subjects, and offers both overviews and techniques. Fact sheets are also available for the indigenous primates studied at the Institute, as well as relevant publications and reports.
