Arranging
for OAR Services:
Who
should you Contact?
For
general information, or any questions
not addressed below, email: OARinfo@missouri.edu
|
|
PIs
and research
technicians should feel
free to contact any OAR staff member to request animal care or technical
services, or to ask questions. OAR personnel
are well-trained and, if the individual
initially contacted is unable to provide
the service requested or answer a question,
he or she will direct the request or question
to someone who is able to do so. You should
only have to contact one OAR staff member
to obtain the services you need. Below
are listed some of the most probable efficient
contacts for typical situations. |

Contact
the Chief
Laboratory Animal Technologist in the unit where any new or additional
animal care or animal technical services
are needed:

the veterinarian assigned to each area (call 882-3111 or
ask anyone on the OAR animal care staff
to contact the veterinarian) for:

- advice or assistance
with anesthesia, analgesia, euthanasia,
surgery, or postoperative care
(The name of the veterinarian assigned to
each area is posted on the bulletin board
in each OAR-managed animal facility as well
as online.)
