http://www.jhu.edu/animalcare/ Many faculty and students in the School do research involving animal subjects. The care and use of these subjects are regulated by the Animal Welfare Act, which is implemented by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The University has one assurance with the federal government (the Office of Laboratory Animal Welfare [OLAW]) and, therefore, the University has one animal care and use committee (IACUC). Faculty from the School of Public Health, the School of Medicine, and the Homewood campus serve on this committee. School of Public Health IACUC Representatives
