Please note that a protocol submission must undergo thorough pre-review by IACUC staff and any necessary ancillary reviews (i.e., veterinarian, EHS) before it can be sent to a meeting for full committee review. We recommend you allow for 3-4 weeks for the pre-review process. All submissions must be ready for full committee review one week before the meeting date to be included on the agenda. While working on any submission, please keep review process in mind and reach out to iacuc@uconn.edu if there are any questions about what documents/information to include with a submission.
