Investigators intending to use animal subjects in research or for instructional purposes must submit a written description of the activities, using the IACUC's Application for Research or Teaching Project Involving Live Animals, which is in MS Word format. The completed application must be submitted as an attachment to the IACUC Chair (Eric.Strauss@lmu.edu). The IACUC meets four times a year and reviews proposals electronically or in person year-round, therefore proposals may be submitted at any time.
