CNPRC Outreach

The goal of CNPRC outreach is to increase the availability of cutting-edge science and biomedical research knowledge to students, educators, and communities, reaching new and nontraditional audiences. Our outreach program directly connects scientists with expertise in biomedical research with the community. Our programs use innovative methods and new modes of learning that have resulted in an increase in science literacy and healthy lifestyle choices, a greater understanding of nonhuman primates, an extension of this information to families, and an increase in student and educators' awareness of the benefits of, and career opportunities in, biomedical research.
