Abstract

This report introduces a small-scale primate facility for brain, cognition, and behavior researches that has been in use since 2004 at the Seoul National University, Seoul Korea. The goal of the current report is to provide starting researchers and institutions with first-hand information regarding physical floor plan and operational principles of a compact but meeting high standards of safety and health for both attenders and animals. Along with the ‘Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals’, prepared by the U.S. National Academies, and the ‘Care of Primates Used in Scientific Procedures’, prepared by the U.K. Medical Research Council, the contents described in the current report will hopefully help starters to understand and plan necessary spaces and procedures, reducing trial and errors. We deal with animal maintenance only to such an extent that it is related with facility and its operation.
