The National Agricultural Library in Beltsville, Maryland if offering for principal investigators, members of IACUCs, information providers, administrators of animal use programs, and veterinarians a workshop about the responsibilites of meeting the requirements of the Animal Welfare Act (AWA).
The AWA require that investigators provide documentation with their applications demonstrating that alternatives to procedures that may cause more than momentary pain or distress to the animals have been considered and that the proposed activities do not unnecessarily duplicate previous experiments.
