The Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals (the Guide), now in its 8th edition has served as a reference document on animal care and use for several decades. The current edition was published in 2011 and for the Guide to remain a relevant reference document, it needs to stay current on animal care and use issues.
This workshop will serve as a platform to share information and gather knowledge on topics related to the Guide to inform future updates and/or revisions to the Guide, including discussions exploring topics related to regulations, terminology, housing, dissemination formats, and other relevant topics.
