Research Animal Management Branch
Head: Joseph M. Schech
The operations of the Research Animal Management Branch (RAMB) are
directed to provide animal research support services to NICHD
investigators and to represent the interests of the NICHD on all
aspects of animal research.
Investigators must meet certain criteria prior to beginning any
project using research animals at the NIH. These include completion of
an approved training course, registration with the Animal Exposure
Surveillance Program, obtaining approval from the NICHD Animal Care
and Use Committee for proposed studies, animal procurement, and
instruction in special animal facility operating procedures.
