IACUC must review all research, teaching, and testing activities involving the vertebrate animals.
Participant Qualifications — If you are seeking approval for a protocol that will have more than four persons working on the project, you must complete this form, attach it to the protocol request, and submit it to the IACUC coordinator before IACUC approval of the protocol can be granted.

Addition of Personnel — (REVISED 9/21/20) Complete this online form for each person that you want to add to an approved protocol. All new study personnel must upload documentation of CITI and Occupational Health training into the system. The form can be submitted by the PI or any other project member, including the new personnel, that has been delegated authority to do so by the PI.
