The new NIH director says “Second, NIH-supported science should be replicable, reproducible, and generalizable.” NHP are exactly that. One if not the most generalizable and reproducible research model organism.

You and we know we need more science not less science funding in the US to remain at a competitive advantage as well as solve problems of the 21st century. Example being NHP research. Neuralink has benefited greatly from our work. Therapies for tomorrow!

Amazing work. From NHP to humans in one cycle !!

Huberman, Ph.D. No airlines will fly primates (international or domestic). Trucking monkeys across the country costs tens of thousands of dollars each trip and requires getting permits for every state they travel through.

If you are interested in a post-doc studying the neural control of movement in humans or NHPs, check out this program and get in touch soon! uwo.ca/research/fundi…

If you are interested in combining innovative models of substance use with pre-clinical MRI (at 9.4T and 15.2T, awake/behaving) and circuit interrogation, lets try for one of these together! Come join us! uwo.ca/research/fundi…

Cory Miller Andrew D. Huberman, Ph.D. Dustin Burnham NIH Donald J. Trump JD Vance Robert F. Kennedy Jr Jay Bhattacharya @NIHDirector One would think the Republican agenda would be to roll back the red tape to make research less costly and more efficient. And replicable. And translatable. If those were indeed their goals, of course.

Spot on Bita! Additionally, NHP research is actually not more expensive than modern systems mouse work. It also makes up a tiny sliver of the fiscal pie despite its tremendous impact.

Andrew D. Huberman, Ph.D. Dustin Burnham NIH Donald J. Trump JD Vance Robert F. Kennedy Jr Jay Bhattacharya @NIHDirector Would be a huge mistake. Science is ready to study the brain circuits involved in some of the biggest mysteries (intelligence, mood, sanity) & how those go awry in brain disorders. Many of those brain circuits don't exist in mice & we can't study these things directly in humans.

Bita Moghaddam بيتا مقدم Andrew D. Huberman, Ph.D. Absolutely. Per study, NHPs are not more expensive than mice; they are less expensive.

This would be a huge disservice to patients with neurological diseases. Speaking from my little corner of science, the remarkable recent progress in brain-computer interfaces to restore lost abilities (like speaking, moving, walking) were made possible by NHP studies!

Monkeys -> real human cures !!!! Jay Bhattacharya

🐒🦠 Monkeys with Mpox helped researchers from Helmholtz trace the virus to its likely source: wild rope squirrels. Read more 👉 eara.eu/post/monkeys-i…

🐒 Monkeys: Unlocking the Brain’s Mysteries 🐒 Monkeys play a vital role in neuroscience research, helping scientists understand complex diseases like Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, and autism. Their contributions have also led to the development of life-saving vaccines. #BRADWeek2025

🐒 Dutch gov report confirms: Monkeys remain vital to drug development & disease research. NAMs aren't there yet to replace all NHP studies. #AnimalResearch #SciencePolicy eara.eu/post/dutch-gov…
