<\/strong>Tell the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to stop these
\nhorrifically tormenting, useless, invalid experiments that
\nbrutalize animals to get millions of dollars in taxpayer
\ndollars.<\/strong><\/div>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong>According to the researcher\u2019s own words from his
\nproject description on the NIH website: \u201cAs part of a long
\nstanding ongoing program at the Yerkes National Primate Center
\nstudying the effects of early life stress in rhesus monkeys, a
\ngreat deal of data \u2026 has been carried out. \u2026 We believe this is
\na tremendous resource that should not be wasted. If we cannot
\npay the per diems on these animals they will have to be released
\nand we will no longer have access to them.\u201d<\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n

INFORMATION \/ TALKING POINTS<\/strong><\/div>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

Shockingly, taxpayer dollars are still being wasted for
\nanimal experiments involving cruel and pointless maternal
\ndeprivation. Emory University, for example, recently received
\nseveral grants from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to
\nconduct ongoing post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
\nexperiments on rats and monkeys. According to one project
\ndescription from the NIH website, PTSD was induced in rhesus
\nmonkeys by forcing them to be \u201cseparated from their mothers for
\nvariable periods of time each day when they were infants.\u201d <\/strong><\/div>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

Maternal deprivation and PTSD research on monkeys and other
\nspecies is totally unnecessary\u2014there is already ample real-world
\nhuman data on these traumas. Such redundant and unproductive
\nanimal research does, however, financially benefit career
\nresearchers and their housing institutions. According to the
\nresearcher\u2019s own words from his project description on the NIH
\nwebsite: \u201cAs part of a long standing ongoing program at the
\nYerkes National Primate Center studying the effects of early
\nlife stress in rhesus monkeys, a great deal of data \u2026 has been
\ncarried out. \u2026 We believe this is a tremendous resource that
\nshould not be wasted. If we cannot pay the per diems on these
\nanimals they will have to be released and we will no longer have
\naccess to them.\u201d<\/strong><\/div>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

Emory University is the parent institution for the Yerkes
\nNational Primate Research Center, one of the five
\nfederally-funded research facilities nationwide housing both
\nchimpanzees and other primates. Yerkes is infamous for its long
\nand shameful history of experiments on primates and has been
\ncited numerous times for violations of the Animal Welfare Act. A
\nsignificant percentage of every government grant that Yerkes
\nreceives to house and experiment on primates goes to
\nadministrative overhead, benefiting Emory. <\/strong><\/div>\n
