2:15 PM – 3:15 PM ET
Location: West Overlook
This session is being held in-person only at PRIMR23. It will not be recorded for on-demand access or for the PRIMR23/SBER23 Virtual Meeting.
Due to the nature of the research conducted in the private sector (e.g., 'big pharma', contract research organizations, etc.), the IACUC at these institutions often deal with slightly different problems and scenarios than the IACUC sees in academia. This session is devoted to presenting and discussing problems and/or issues that are unique for the care and use of nonhuman animals by the private sector.
Learning Objectives:
Identify situations unique to the private sector that cause issues for the IACUC and the IACUC chair
Describe strategies for dealing with sensitive issues, including conflicts that are unique to an IACUC in private sector businesses that use nonhuman animals for research
Discuss how recent regulatory changes and/or supply chain issues have affected the protocol review process and/or other IACUC functions that may need to be navigated by the IACUC chair
