Announcements: Meetings and Deadlines
Oct. 26, Nov. 30
Institutional Review Board
12:45 p.m., Dean's Conference Room
Boatwright Administrative Wing, Room 4
Please remember that research involving human subjects may not begin before
approval is received. Though some applications can be processed quickly
through expedited review, others must be considered by the entire committee
at the next scheduled meeting. To avoid delay, please submit your application
to the IRB well in advance--at least two to three weeks--of the planned
starting date for your research. Applications are available online at
oncampus.richmond.edu/academics/grad_a&s/forms/index.html.
Nov. 11
Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC)
1 p.m., Dean's Conference Room
Boatwright Administrative Wing, Room 4
All faculty contemplating research on animals are reminded that the federal
government requires that such research be cleared by the University IACUC.
Applications for proposals are available at oncampus.richmond.edu/academics/grad_a&s/forms/index.html.
Proposals should be submitted well in advance--at least two to three
weeks--to be considered at a scheduled meeting of IACUC. Federal regulations
also require that the University provide training and education for all
individuals working with laboratory animals. To comply with those regulations,
IACUC requires that all individuals--faculty, staff, lab assistants, and
undergraduate and graduate students--working with laboratory animals view
the film Animal Care Matters before beginning work. Copies of the film
are available in the biology and psychology departments, the Media Resource
Center and the Graduate School office.
