The ARC recently updated the policy Maintaining Animals in Study Areas. Updates were made to clarify and better format information within the policy. There are no changes to the conditions that must be met for the ARC to approve a study area.
We encourage you to review and discuss this policy with your research team if it is relevant to your laboratory. All ARC policies are available on the ARC website.
Please do not hesitate to contact us at 310-206-6308 or arc@research.ucla.edu if you have any questions.
