Welcome

The Animal Research Protection Program (ARPP) was developed to ensure the proper care, use and humane treatment of animals in research. The Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) is an integral part of this program. Additional components are responsible for ensuring that all personnel involved in animal research activities understand and comply with the ethical and regulatory requirements of animal research. The ARPP coordinates oversight by incorporating all aspects of compliance related to animal research. The components of the ARPP are:

  • Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee
  • Laboratory Animal Resources
  • Conflict of Interest Committee
  • Institutional Research Safety Committee
  • Executive Team
