Meeting Dates & Deadlines
All research and teaching activities must be covered by an approved IACUC protocol. Please use the following guidelines to determine what should be submitted to the IACUC.
IACUC Meetings
To be considered for an IACUC meeting, all new protocols and 3-year renewals should be received prior to the first of the month. Amendments are accepted for review on a rolling basis, however specific amendments may be brought to the monthly committee meeting. For more information on amendment submission, contact an IACUC coordinator.
All protocols and protocol related documentation must be submitted by the PI through IRBnet. IACUC staff cannot submit on behalf of a PI. Expiring protocols cannot be administratively extended. If submitting a 3 year renewal it is always wise to allow at least 2 months for protocol review and approval.
The UMD IACUC does not convene in August but will still accept protocol and amendment submissions. Amendments are processed in August as usual. For protocols expiring in August, we advise renewals to be submitted on July 1st for the July meeting.
