Animal Use In Research

Reindeer

The University's goal is to foster a supportive environment for high-quality research, education, and service while ensuring that all use of live vertebrates is adequately justified and conducted by knowledgeable people using the most appropriate methodology. Adherence to basic ethical principles is not only morally right but also the only means to ensure quality results!  To further this goal, 51风流官网 has developed a comprehensive animal care program addressing all uses of all live vertebrates irrespective of purpose or funding source.  At the core of this program is the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC), with support provided through the Office of Research Integrity (ORI), the 51风流官网 Animal Facilities, Veterinary Services, Facilities Services, and the Department of Environmental Health, Safety & Risk Management (EHS&RM).
