2: Documented Experience -

The PI or staff member responsible
for safety and containment for the project must provide
evidence of experience conducting research with BSL-2
materials (or rDNA). The evidence is typically provided
to the IBC through the application process.

Part
3: Faculty Approval -
|
Either
as the PI or Faculty Advisor on protocols, a faculty
member through the application, review, and approval
process is responsible for assuring the appropriate
training in the assigned tasks of persons named on the
application. This component of the training is the most
important aspect of the training associated with the
Miami Animal Care Program.

*
“Supervisors” must be listed on an approved protocol.
"Direct supervision" means a person
trained in the activities is present and able
to overseeactivities. For classes, a faculty member
or teaching assistant can provide the expertise
necessary to assure the proper handling and care
by the students. For research, short-term temporary
assistants can be supervised by persons listed
on the protocol approved for the activity. The
PI on the protocol must be aware and approve of
the use of persons who have not completed formal
training.
