The University Attending Veterinarian, Dr. Mary Sauer, and LAR veterinarians are available for consultation, particularly for projects that may involve animal pain or distress. Animal housing space and equipment are not assigned until a project has been approved by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC); however, informing LAR of project needs in advance may help to avoid delays when the project is approved. It is important to note that IACUC approval of a project is not a guarantee that appropriate housing space and equipment is immediately available for the project. Also, LAR does not accept leased animals unless the lease agreement has been approved by LAR. |
