The National Center for Research Resources, part of NIH, supports a broad range of activities in support of biomedical research, including a national network of general clinical research centers (GCRCs), developing animal models for human disease, development of new high-tech instrumentation, and minority educational programs. The NCRR also sponsors seven regional primate research centers in the US for insightful studies of human health and behavior.
