For most (external) grant-funded protocols, it is accepted that scientific merit review takes place during the peer review process. For research not subject to prior peer review (including internal grants, pilot studies, thesis research and certain contract research) the Office of Research and Graduate Studies has established a scientific review process that considers the hypotheses/objectives, methods and contributions of the proposed research to ensure that the involvement of animals is warranted. (Please provide the following information and submit the completed form to the Office of Research and Graduate Studies. Researchers are encouraged to submit requests for Scientific Merit Review well before ACC deadlines as this review must be completed before the ACC will review Animal Use Protocols) Principal Investigator(s): Department: Collaborator(s): Department: Student Investigator(s): Department: Section I. Title of ProjectDepartment:Section II. Explain the scientific hypothesis(es) /objectives of this project Section III. Methodology - Explain why the use of live animals is necessary in this project verses alternatives such as mathematical models, computer simulations or in vitro systems etc. Section IV. Explain what new information is expected from this project and its anticipated value to humans and animals.  During the scientific merit review process, the hypothesis (es) /objectives, methodology and contributions/ new information of the proposed research have been reviewed. Based on the outcome of this review the proposed research is considered to have scientific merit.   During the scientific merit review process, the hypothesis (es) /objectives, methodology and contributions/ new information of the proposed research have been reviewed. Based on the outcome of this review the proposed research is considered NOT to have scientific merit. Reviewers Comments: 1) Please comment briefly on the objectives and potential contribution(s) of this study to scientific knowledge. 2) Please comment briefly on the: a) hypothesis of the study and appropriateness of the experimental design involving animals. b) animal based methods.
