Welfare of Research Animals

Any individual who has concerns related to the use of animals in research at Clarkson University is encouraged to voice those concerns. Please contact the University Privacy Hotline (315-268-6737) or email the IACUC Institutional Officer Nannan Dong at ndong@spmdesign.net. 

Clarkson University will not tolerate any misuse or neglect of animals nor will the institution accept reprisal against an individual who has come forward with concerns or allegations of wrong-doing involving the care and use of animals. Such reprisal is prohibited by federal law (USDA Regulations & the 9th Code of Federal Regulations). Individuals who feel that action has been taken against them because they reported an apparent violation of animal care and use requirements, should present their case to the Chair of the IACUC, the Institutional Officer, or the Facility Manager
