Related Units

Several other MSU units oversee activities and materials related to animal use.

Researchers and educators are responsible for knowing all regulations and policies governing all areas of their enterprise. Likely your project falls under one or more of the following:

• Environmental Health & Safety (EHS)

  Depending upon the activities and environment, there are additional regulations, policies, procedures, and training associated with preventing illness and injury to those handling animals and public health and safety.

  Resources and Requirements for:

  • Animal Handler Safety
  • Controlled Substances
  • Lab and Clinic Safety
• Export Controls & Trade Sanctions

  Federal laws impose access, dissemination, and participation restrictions on the transfer of controlled goods, software and information.

  Conflict Disclosures and Management

  MSU's Faculty/Academic Staff Conflict of Interest Policy requires all MSU faculty and academic staff submit an annual disclosure of all significant financial interests related to their MSU responsibilities. This requirement has applied to investigators for Public Health Service (PHS) and National Science Foundation (NSF) since 2012.

  In addition, Conflict of Interest training is required for investigators on PHS-funded projects.
