The Oregon National Primate Research Center (ONPRC) is located 12 miles west of the OHSU main campus, and sits on 162 acres of land featuring forested areas, research and administration buildings, indoor and outdoor animal housing, a pond, and 2-mile perimeter walking path. Our mission is to improve human health and the quality of life through the support of nonhuman primate research programs that advance our knowledge of the causes, preventions, treatments, and cures of debilitating diseases.
The ONPRC integrated pathology core (IPC) provides high-quality, state-of-the-art conventional and advanced histology, microscopy, and image analysis services and expertise to investigators and pathologists at the institutional, regional, and national level in support of research using NHP models in studies relevant to human health and disease. The IPC provides an integrated and comprehensive environment and infrastructure, working with investigators to meet their research pathology needs at all stages from project design through support of manuscript preparation. The IPC serves diverse research programs in neuroscience, reproductive and developmental biology, metabolic health and disease, and immunology and infectious disease in NHP models principally in support of NIH-funded studies, as well as the histology needs for diagnostic support of the ONPRC NHP colony. The IPC Histopathology section services include both standard and advanced sample preparation, embedding, sectioning, staining, and immunohistochemistry (IHC), as well as more state-of-the-art techniques such as RNA/DNA/BaseScope and multiplex IHC/ISH.
The IPC Histopathology section Manager provides general and specific oversight and management of the histopathology section of the IPC, which currently consists of the section manager, 3 histotechnologists and a research assistant 2 who all report to the section manager. The section manager reports to the interim IPC director, Dr. Charles Roberts, and also coordinates IPC operations with Dr. Srinivasan, manager of the microscopy section.
