Description:

The Animal Resources Center (ARC) is an AAALAC approved animal research facility, providing researchers with the opportunity to study a diverse number of animal species. ARC maintains animal housing rooms, observation rooms, and procedure rooms at BSL 1 and 2 containment levels. The ARC is supported by certified veterinarians and animal care technicians who provide technical support and veterinary care.
