Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IAÌìÃÀ´«Ã½C)

The ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½ adheres to all federal and state regulations directing the humane use and care of animals for teaching and research. This includes the Public Health Service Policy on Humane Care and Use of Laboratory Animals and the Animal Welfare Act, among others. We also use other resources to guide our Animal Care and Use Program, including but not limited to the Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals, Eighth Edition.

The IAÌìÃÀ´«Ã½C at the ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½ has also written and approved specific ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½ Policies to guide our care and use here on campus.
