Aging is one of the most universal and inevitable social and sci entific challenges confronting man. With the development of speech and the formation of symbolic language, the human brain has made it possible to transmit information cultur ally (horizontal) to other members of society, in addition to genetic (vertical) transmission to progeny.

In recognition of the pressing need to address this problem, eight Geriatric Research, Educational and Clinical Centers (GRECC) have been established under the auspices of the Veterans Administration and the guiding spirit of Dr. Paul Haber, Assistant Chief Medical Director for Professional Services, Veterans Administration.

The course intended to serve students and researchers using primates in medical and biological research, but especially those interested in the natural history of the group and in human biology. In terms of both prac tical human purposes and theoretical interests, the study of primate biology and behaviour is of ever increasing importance.

The greatest contribution has come through the development of new therapeutic agents that not only provide invaluable help to the mentally ill but serve as chemical tools for studying the biological mechanisms associated with the disease state.
