IACUC 2024 Conference

IACUC 2024 is an engaging and intimate two-day conference that will be held April 29-30, 2024, at The Friday Conference Center in Chapel Hill, N.C. This conference is intended for both new IACUC members and seasoned members of animal care and use programs.

Day 1 (IACUC Fundamentals) will address key issues for successful animal care and use programs, including the roles and responsibilities of the IACUC, recruiting and retaining members, protocol review, virtual meetings, semiannual program reviews and inspections.

Day 2 (IACUC Advanced) will provide in-depth presentations and discussion during breakout sessions.

Concurrent sessions will address topics, including:

  • Controlled substance research use and requirements
  • Collaborations, MOUs and grant congruency review
  • Challenges in tracking animal numbers (e.g., rodent neonates, fish, field studies and other animals that may not be captured in a centralized system)
  • Contingency planning
  • Working with and maintaining high quality ancillary committees (Occupational Health & Safety; Environmental Health & Safety)
  • Considerations for alternatives: Pain categories, search requirements and the 3Rs
  • USDA updates
