Please review the requirement for animal care and use training. The IACUC now requires that all animal care staff and research personnel, including faculty, graduate students and undergraduate students, using animals in any research or teaching project complete the on-line education module. Training must be completed before submitting an application. The certificate of training completion must be submitted to the Human and Animal Research Protections Office. Electronically submit the protocol and any accompanying documents to iacucsubmissions@umbc.edu Once the electronic submission has been performed, one copy of the completed application, signed by the investigator, must be forwarded to the Human and Animal Protections Research Office, bwtech@UMBC, 5523 Research Park Drive, Suite 310, Baltimore, Maryland 21228. Protocol applications will not be processed until the application is received. Sufficient lead-time is necessary for the Committee to review each protocol; this should be taken into consideration in planning start dates or need for approval for funding agencies. Investigators will be provided opportunity to respond to Committee reviewer questions prior to full review and approval at each scheduled meeting. The IACUC meets four (4) times a year. In order to allow for sufficient review and placement on the meeting agenda, new or renewal protocol applications must be submitted at least 45 days before the scheduled meeting. Applications not received by that deadline date will be automatically placed on the agenda for the next scheduled meeting.
