ANIMAL ETHICS COMMITTEE

INFORMATION FOR APPLICANTS

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.
