Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC)
For the Protection of Animal Subjects in Research
The primary function of UNC's Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee is to assist faculty, students and staff in upholding UNC's commitment to providing
the finest care and most humane utilization of laboratory animals. To this end, every
research, testing and teaching project involving the use of vertebrate animals must
be reviewed and approved by the IACUC prior to initiations. The IACUC shares with
the investigator the responsibility for the ethical decisions made regarding the care
and use of animals.
