This session will provide an overview of how IACUCs and AVs work with investigators to support their needs while maintaining optimal animal welfare. Participants will gain a deeper understanding of the strategies IACUCs and AVs use to facilitate researchers' goals particularly with respect to husbandry practices, experimental design, environmental factors, and choice of animal model. Strengthening communication between these entities is essential for improving research rigor, translatability, and overall public trust in animal research.

Learning Objectives:

  • Discuss how IACUCs and AVs assist investigators with their needs, including challenges and opportunities associated with various animal models and husbandry practices
  • Share strategies and best practices to strengthen communication between researchers (including early-stage investigators), IACUCs, and AVs
  • Explore strategies for designing an onboarding process for new investigators, including methodologies used to assist investigators in better developing animal protocols
  • Review Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology and other advocacy resources that enable animal research stakeholders to communicate the value of animal research and the oversight mechanisms in place to ensure human and animal safety
