The conference and its host

The Laboratory Animal Science Association of Malaysia (LASAM) held the 2nd LASAM Workshop on IACUC on 30 and 31 July 2018, followed by the 6th National Conference on Laboratory Animal Science on 1 and 2 August 2018, at Avenue Garden Hotel, Bangi, Selangor. The theme was Animal Welfare for Better Research.

An IACUC is an institutional animal care and use committee, the committee that reviews research involving animals before it starts. The programme covered the Animal Welfare Act, the work of these committees, AAALAC accreditation, Good Laboratory Practice and the training of people who work with laboratory animals.
