Husbandry and veterinary care
for animals used in teaching and research on the LSU campus and in the School of
Veterinary Medicine are provided by the Division of Laboratory Animal Medicine
(DLAM). Standards of care and use for all animals conform to all applicable
standards and regulations as established by the current version of the Animal
Welfare Act and the Guide to the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals. This
program and its facilities are currently certified through a semiannual
inspection by the Institutional Animal Care and use Committee (IACUC).
LSU's animal program is fully accredited by the Association for the Assessment
and Accreditation of Laboratory Animal Care (AAALAC) and meets all NIH assurance
requirements. The Life Sciences Animal Care Facility also has full AAALAC
accreditation.
