The National Center for Research Resources of the National Institutes

of Health is conducting the "National Survey of Laboratory Animal

Use, Facilities, and Resources" of all Public Health Service (PHS)

awardee institutions.  This survey was mailed to the Institutional

Officials of all OPRR-assured institutions, at the address indicated

on the assurance, in January 1995.  Data requested includes

information on the characteristics of the organization, the species

and numbers of animals in the program, the facilities and personnel

supporting the laboratories, and the costs of animal care.  In order

to maintain the confidentiality of the responses, the survey will be

anonymous.  The final report, which will be sent to each institution

in late 1996, will contain aggregated data gathered from the

responding institutions.



The survey is being performed by Advanced Resource Technologies, Inc.

During the survey response period, February 1 to March 17, staff of

Advanced Resource Technologies, Inc. will maintain a toll free number

-- 1-800-NIH-2494 -- to offer assistance to respondents with any

questions about the survey.



The survey information will be of great importance to the NIH in

determining the impact of animal resource needs on biomedical

research and the future funding of laboratory animal research,

facility construction, and renovation programs.  Each institution is

strongly urged to participate in the survey process, since the value

of aggregated information rests on a significant response from the

PHS awardee institutions.
