- The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) intends to negotiate with Alpha Genesis, Incorporated, Yemassee, South Carolina, a subsidiary of LABS of Virginia, Incorporated, for a three year contract modification to Contract No. N01AA02018. Alpha Genesis will continue studying genetic and biochemical determinants of excessive and impulsive aggression in free-ranging juvenile and adolescent and young adult male and female nonhuman primates. Alpha Genesis will continue the identification and active maintenance of a homogenous population of aggressive juvenile rhesus monkeys, freely selected by the Laboratory of Clinical Studies - Primate Section, NIAAA. Biological samples will be collected consisting of repeated CSF samples to assay for neurotransmitter activity, blood samples to assay for hormone concentrations, skin biopsy samples to harvest for DNA to perform molecular genetic analyses, behavioral samples consisting of frequency and duration of social interactions, aggression, risk taking, social dominance, troop residence, and automated computerized collection of individual activity rates and sleep patterns in a sample of free-ranging juvenile, adolescent, and young adult rhesus macaques. Authority: 41 U.S.C. (c)(1), as set forth in FAR 6.302-1. Alpha Genesis is the only known source with the sufficient population size and demography to perform this study. Any inquiries must be submitted to NIAAA in writing and reference Contract No. N01AA02018.
