Comment 1: I do recommend that the NIH adopt the eigth edition of the Guide. Comment 2: I think that this timeline is acceptable as long as IACUC can accept reasonable plans for implementation. Institutions should not be required to immediately implement some of the new requirements, such as the cage requirements for breeding mice.
