Feedback Requested on OLAW and USDA Efforts to Reduce Administrative Burden

In response to the 21st Century Cures Act, OLAW and USDA are requesting feedback on their efforts to reduce administrative burden, while maintaining the integrity and credibility of research findings and the protection of research animals. A survey link will be sent out to contacts from Domestic Assured institutions and USDA Registered research facilities via email once the survey opens. The survey will take approximately 15-25 minutes to complete. Please note: 

• The survey should be completed by individuals (e.g., IACUC administrators, coordinators, etc.) involved directly in the oversight of their institution’s animal care and use program and/or IACUC policies and operations
• The survey will open on June 1, 2023, and close on August 31, 2023

Please email olaw@od.nih.gov with any questions
