Jim Newman here from OHSU.

I agree that it is inappropriate and irresponsible for guests of the program to make claims about the OHSU primate center and essentially paint targets on our researchers.

The primate center is heavily regulated and has been the source of significant health advancements. For example, last year our stem cell breakthrough was identified along with human studies as the top science breakthrough of the year by TIME magazine.

It is also noteworthy that each time claims of mistreatment have been made, investigations have cleared the center.
