IACUC Lab Create a Follow-on Submission

If you need to make changes to an approved protocol or review it, you can create following submissions:

  • Triennial Review: A review of an approved protocol that is conducted every three years.
  • Amendment: Created to submit a change to an approved protocol.

Note: For triennial reviews, make sure you review all protocol information (e.g., team members, funding sources, activities, and approved and used animal numbers) and submit any needed amendments immediately. If an amendment is already in review, wait until the first amendment is processed.
