Do "We generated a rhesus macaque model" and "We created a rhesus macaque model" have the same meaning? It seems to me that "create a model" is a bit more graceful in linguistics than "generate a model". I am not sure.
Both work in this context, of course. But widening one's vocabulary is a good thing in expressing your own ideas.

Primary exposure to SARS-CoV-2 protects against reinfection in rhesus macaques
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), which is caused by infection with the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), has become a global pandemic. It currently remains unclear whether convalescing patients have a risk of reinfection. We generated a rhesus macaque model of SARS-CoV-2 infection that was characterized by interstitial pneumonia and systemic viral dissemination mainly in the respiratory and gastrointestinal tracts. Rhesus macaques reinfected with the identical SARS-CoV-2 strain during the early recovery phase of the initial SARS-CoV-2 infection did not show detectable viral dissemination, clinical manifestations of viral disease, or histopathological changes.
