VERTEBRATE 

ANIMAL USE

The mission of the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) is to foster an environment that supports high quality research and education using animals while ensuring Purdue’s animal care program is in compliance with all federal, state, institutional and accrediting requirements. With a focus on the highest standards of customer service, the IACUC supports the regulatory requirements of the IACUC (Committee) and serves as a liaison between the users of vertebrate animals and the Committee.

The Centrally Managed Animal Facilities (CMAF) provide high-quality animal housing, husbandry, and breeding services in a clean, welcoming environment. Guided by a strong commitment to customer service, CMAF is dedicated to delivering efficient, reliable care—ensuring that the health and well-being of your animals remain our top priority.

Purdue’s Animal Resource Management Software (ARMS) is a centralized animal ordering, breeding, veterinary care, and billing system at Purdue.
