Protocols that are likely to involve pain and distress pose special challenges for IACUCS, especially when options for mitigation may be limited. This session will discuss research areas where this can be a concern, such as high containment research, disease characterization, vaccine research, sepsis studies, and oncology research. Speakers will also explore ways to improve the welfare of the study animals.

Learning Objectives:

  • Discuss research areas where animal use presents special welfare challenges
  • Identify practical approaches to improve welfare even in the face of environmental or study-based limitations
  • Create buy-in and a roadmap for implementation
