The Institute of Primate Research, in the Ololua forest about 20 kilometers outside the Kenyan capital, Nairobi, has been in operation since it was founded by the archaeologist Louis Leakey in 1960. The institute's initial focus was on the study of evolution and the ecology of non-human primates, but today its emphasis has shifted toward biomedical research mainly using baboons.
