Defining Lead Roles: Building Compliance Confidence Through Collaboration & Outreach is part of the U-M Animal Care & Use Program’s new Building a Culture of Care: Essentials for Laboratory Animal Research seminar series.
About this Session
All members of the U-M animal care and use community can actively participate in cultivating a safe, secure, and compliant research environment.
Though contributions may vary by role (e.g., student, faculty staff, technician, administrator), there are several best practices that any individual can employ to help build their compliance confidence.
During this session, members of the Animal Care & Use Office’s Quality Assurance Team will:
- Identify ways to reduce administrative burden and improve operating efficiencies across the Animal Care & Use Program,
- Discuss how common issues in the research environment can be prevented and resolved, and
- Offer guidance, tools, and resources to empower individuals from across the U-M research enterprise with compliance knowledge and know-how.
