Summary:Highlights • Currently, full consideration is not being given to the genetic variation in nonhuman primates (NHP). • As models for human disease, it is critical to understand how genetic variation in NHPs affects biomedical research. • The sequencing of NHP genomes is enabling advances in assessing and leveraging genetic variation. • Guidelines are needed to improve biomedical research and breeding practices.
