Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC)
Bowdoin College is committed to the proper and humane treatment of all animal research subjects. All members of the College—faculty, staff, and students alike—are expected to show respect and regard for any living creature subjected to investigative procedure.
Unnecessary pain to any creature is to be avoided. Awareness and discussion of these issues are part of the professional development and responsibility of faculty and the education of students.
The IACUC has scheduled meetings throughout the year and will schedule additional meetings as needed, including during the summer months.
Subcommittee meetings will be scheduled twice per year to perform the semiannual facility inspections and program reviews.
Chair: William Jackman
Research Compliance Manager: Emily Murphy
