Protocol review process

All research and teaching activities involving animals requires YukonU ACC approval prior to the starting the activity as per University policy.

Expected Review Turnaround Time:  6-8 weeks.  Planning ahead is important. Review the ACC meeting schedule to ensure your submission can be reviewed before any animal activities are to be done. 

Note: If you are applying for a teaching or training related activity involving animals you must have Pedagogical Merit Review approval before submitting your animal use protocol application. (see details in Forms and Guidelines section)

All protocol approvals by the ACC are good for 1 year with 3 yearly renewals (total of 4 years).  After 3 renewals a new protocol submission is required.
