The Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) is a federally mandated committee charged with overseeing the care and well-being of animals used for research and educational purposes. We are responsible for ensuring institutional compliance with ethical and legal standards for the use of animals in research. We also act as a dean’s advisory committee on the operation of the Institute for Animal Studies (IAS).
Our committee is composed of faculty members, including the IACUC chair, who use animals, an attending veterinarian (the IAS director); one or more nonscientists (who do not use animals); and one or more community representatives otherwise unaffiliated with Einstein. The members of the IACUC are appointed by the Dean.
