A bridge too far

Abstract

The author of this editorial, Chief, Primate Protocol Support, U.S. Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases, Fort Detrick, MD, believes that Dr. Wade Aminit is justified in feeling uncomfortable with the protocol. He contends that no protocol, however loosely written, can cover all of the potential animal use concerns that could present themselves in a university setting. The examples provided in this scenario include new surgical procedures, new anesthetic regimens, and a change in species. Most institutions would consider all of these to be major changes.
