IACUC's and the World Wide Web

[Reprinted from Lab Animal, May 1997, with permission. Ed. note: Web addresses have been verified or updated as of September 9, 1998; sites that no longer exist have been omitted.]

IACUC's (Institutional Animal Care and Use Committees) and other organizations have the opportunity to participate both locally and globally on the World Wide Web.  Future client--server databases will make possible online submission and retrieval of research protocol information, shared databases with Federal agencies, and online training and testing tools.  The following is a partial list of documents and IACUC-related pages on the web, subject to change.
