#AAALAC
We’re cleaning the bench
We’re emptying the sharps
We’re tossing out
Your favorite styrofoam box
AAALAC is coming to town
He's hiring a ship
He's packing his cloak
He's moving to England
To follow some bloke
Dracula is coming to town

Yes, but also, we already have really strict standards. Extensive IACUC protocols are vetted by a panel that includes research scientists and community members. Inspections by local IACUC and nat'l AAALAC and sometimes USDA, depending on type of research, are done annually.

University of Washington staff presumed a newborn monkey dead, shut the infant inside a cooler, and found the baby breathing an hour later.

As UW prepares for AAALAC accreditation renewal, an urgent question looms: what—or whom—does “oversight” actually protect?

From @science.org: Rise for Animals' “analysis of more than 14,000 USDA inspection reports [] found that although AAALAC-accredited research facilities account for just 42% of all inspection facilities, they received 73% of the two most serious types of USDA citations" between 2014 — mid-2025.
Actions by President Donald Trump’s administration threaten to reduce the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service’s workforce, and a recent U.S. Supreme Court case has handicapped the agency’s ability to punish those who violate the federal Animal Welfare Act. https://scim.ag/41hqG4V
