What Investigators Need to Know About Use of Animals1
The Office of Laboratory Animal Welfare (OLAW) has created a brochure
intended to communicate to investigators their responsibilities under Public
Health Service (PHS) Grants Policy and PHS Policy on Humane care and use of
Laboratory Animals. What Investigators Need to Know About the Use of
Animals provides a succinct resource for investigators to quickly grasp
the main expectations and requirements when using animals in research supported
by the PHS. The brochure may be accessed at http://grants.nih.gov/grants/olaw/InvestigatorsNeed2Know.pdf.
NIH is in the process of converting SF424 (Research and Related [R&R]) forms
and electronic grant submission through http://grants.gov/.
