 Your IACUC will
have at least five members, including people with the following backgrounds.
- A veterinarian with experience in laboratory animal science
and medicine, who has direct or delegated authority and responsibility
for activities involving animals at the institution.
- A practicing
scientist experienced in research with animals.
- A person whose primary
concerns are in a nonscientific area, e.g., an ethicist, lawyer,
or member of the clergy.
- A person not affiliated with the institution
who represents community interests and who is not a laboratory
animal user.
Other IACUC members are usually faculty members and fellow researchers
who are familiar with the issues you are facing and can serve
as resources to help you prepare the best possible application.
