Animal Ethics
Committee Application Papers
The current ethics
application form and guidelines, application for a minor change of
protocol/additional animals/species change/procedure change, the Code of
Practice and other policy documents are available at this website.
Please provide the
original plus FOURTEEN copies of your application.
Dual Clearance
In cases where staff of the Institute wish to undertake activities
involving animals on the premises of another organisation, ethical approval
will be required from the IMVS AEC and the AEC of the parent organisation.
Similarly, people from
other organisations wishing to use animals for scientific purposes on
premises of the IMVS will require ethical approval from their parent
organisation and also from the IMVS. In these cases application should be made
on the application form of the host organisation to the AEC of that
organisation. A copy of the application should be sent to the IMVS AEC at the
same time to avoid delays in approval.
Further advice should be
sought from the Chairperson, AEC if required.
Student Research
In the case of a
student project, the supervisor is to be the applicant with the student named
as also involved. University degree candidates located at another institution
require ethical clearance from the IMVS AEC as well as the institutional
committee at the place where research is conducted.
