Regular meetings of the IACUC are held monthly. A subcommittee meets weekly to review proposed uses of live vertebrate animals and special meetings may be called by the chairperson at any time. The IACUC receives more than 15–20 new applications and modifications to existing protocols each week. Additionally, federal regulations require that IACUC review of applications and modifications be meaningful and that the committee must ensure compliance with the animal welfare regulations, Public Health Service Policy, and the Guide for the Care and Use of Agricultural Animals in Agricultural Research and Teaching. For these reasons, please allow at least 4-6 weeks for review of new applications and 2-4 weeks for review of modifications and renewals of approved studies. In order to be included in the agenda for the following week's subcommittee meeting, your new application, renewal, or major modification must be received by noon on Wednesday. |
