Animal ethics information sessions are held periodically. If your research involves working with animals we encourage you to attend a session to find out more about:

• Animal ethics – introduction and history
• Legislation regarding animal use in research and teaching
• Responsibilities of investigators who use animals
• The ACEC application process.

These information sessions are aimed primarily at Higher Degree Research students; however, course advisors and supervisors are also welcome to attend.
