This core serves as a national resource following the specific priorities of the NIAID Radiation and Nuclear Countermeasures Program. Since 2007, the focus has been on the long-term care and study of animals surviving high-dose irradiation. The Core also provides extensive data management services for primate studies, including data and tissue sharing.
