This book provides guidance on planning for, responding to, and recovering from the impacts of disasters that animal research programs may encounter, such as severe weather, catastrophic failures of facility mechanical systems, intentional or accidental damage to equipment or infrastructure, or significant personnel shortages such as those experienced during the COVID‑19 pandemic. Although individual programs may differ in their processes and facilities, the disaster preparedness and business continuity principles outlined in this book are broadly applicable and relevant to an international audience.The 17 chapters in this book are written by subject matter experts with extensive experience and expertise in animal research program management and/or emergency management. Each chapter offers in-depth coverage of a specific topic, including regulatory requirements, the Incident Command System, the development of disaster response and business continuity plans, training strategies, psychological well-being of personnel, information technology infrastructure and cyber-risk considerations, and effective communications. To support practical application, the book includes checklists, case studies and other resources designed to assist institutions in creating new disaster and business continuity plans as well as critically reviewing and revising existing plans.Considering the critical operational, ethical, and regulatory implications associated with disasters affecting animal research programs, this book is an essential resource for animal research program leadership, including institutional senior administrators, Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee/Oversight Body members, veterinarians, researchers, and animal care personnel, as well as the institutional facilities, engineering, and emergency management leadership and community emergency responders who support these programs.

The revised fifth edition of Clinical Laboratory Animal Medicine: An Introduction is an accessible guide to basic information for conducting animal research safely and responsibly. It includes a review of the unique anatomic and physiologic characteristics of laboratory animals, husbandry practices, and veterinary care of many animals frequently used in research, including rodents, rabbits, ferrets, zebrafish, nonhuman primates, and agricultural animals. The updated fifth edition adds two new chapters on zebrafish and large animals, new information on transgenic models and genetic editing, and expanded coverage of environmental enrichment and pain management. The book presents helpful tip boxes, images, and review questions to aid in comprehension and learning, and a companion website provides editable review questions and answers, instructional PowerPoints, and additional images not found in the book. This important text: • Provides a complete introduction to laboratory animal husbandry, diseases, and treatments• Offers a user-friendly format with helpful content that highlights important concepts• Contains new knowledge relating to technical methodologies, diseases, drug dosages, laws and regulations, and organizations• Covers information on regulations, facilities, equipment, housing, and research variables as well as veterinary care• Includes new chapters on zebrafish and cattle, sheep, goats, and pigs Written for veterinary technicians, veterinary students, practicing veterinarians, and research scientists, the fifth edition of Clinical Laboratory Animal Medicine continues to offer an essential guide to the ethical treatment and anatomic and physiological characteristics of research animals.
