The Cleveland Museum of Natural History will rehouse and digitize the Hamann-Todd Non-Human Primate Skeletal Collection (NHPC), one of the world’s largest collections of great apes. The project will process bones holding dried soft tissue to make them available for scientific study; 3D-scan specimens of a representative sample of the collection and provide research and education access online; and purchase new storage compactors and archival quality storage boxes to upgrade and extend collection preservation. The result will be a well-preserved NHPC that will be readily accessible for scientific research, education, and public engagement locally, nationally, and internationally.
