MSMR and SwAEBR are partnering to present a novel two-day IACUC, IBC & IRB conference.  The conference goals are to encourage open dialogue on common ground areas among these three vital institutional oversight committees.

 

The Three I’s conference platform is designed to help research organizations confront tough issues and develop new approaches to enhancing the entire research process through interdisciplinary cooperation and collaboration.  The conference serves as a platform for the improvement of communication and understanding via the sharing of viewpoints, ideas and information.
