The Primate Enrichment Forum (PEF) is an email list designed to facilitate communication between professionals working at primate biomedical research facilities on the topic of environment enrichment for nonhuman primates. The list is open to animal caretakers, veterinary, research, and behavioral technicians, veterinarians, colony managers, research scientists, and behaviorists/enrichment coordinators, including staff at the NCRR Primate Centers and other research-based primate centers and laboratories worldwide.
PEF is hosted by the Wisconsin Primate Research Center at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and administered by David Seelig at the University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine (dseelig@vet.upenn.edu).
The purpose of this forum is to foster discussion amongst professionals involved in the care and use of nonhuman primates in biomedical research on the topic of environmental and social enrichment.
