e-IACUC

Welcome to e-IACUC, Ohio State's web-based software module that supports the online submission, review, and management of animal protocol information for research submitted to the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC). Using e-IACUC, you can submit new protocols, conveniently request protocol changes, update study teams, and complete annual reviews.

University Laboratory Animal Resources (ULAR) operations are fully automated within e-IACUC. The module supports online animal ordering, animal census monitoring, and tracking of animal expenses.

What are the advantages of automated submission and committee reviews?

• Everyone connected to the IACUC protocol – researchers, study team members, veterinarians, designated administrators and committee members – can view full protocols online
• Information is automatically routed to veterinarians, designated departmental endorsers, IACUC staff, and the IACUC review board, as applicable
• The electronic forms tailor questions specifically to the type of research proposed
• All study-related documents are saved in one place
• Study teams can collaboratively write new protocols
• Study team members can view the records of the protocols on which they are named
• The system is available 24/7 from any location with internet access
• As deadlines approach, automated notices are generated
