This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing theresources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject andinvestigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source,and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed isfor the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator.This is the third year of this new program of studies designed to investigate the neuroanatomical development of the nonhuman primate hippocampal formation. The progress of this research is governed by 1) the availability of infant rhesus monkeys and 2) the accuracy of stereotactic tracer injections. Rhesus monkeys are seasonal breeders and infant monkeys are available from approximately March until June of each year. Thus, during the first three years of this award, we have been gathering a critical mass of experimental material to allow completion of each specific aim. For several of the proposed studies, we are now in the analysis phase of the project and we expect to submit several papers for publication during the next grant year. In the following, we summarize the progress towards each of the specific aims.
