If your research requires the use of controlled substances and/or dangerous drugs, approvals from the Georgia Board of Pharmacy (GBP) and Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) are required.
Different legal and policy requirements apply to investigators who are performing bench research or animal research using Controlled Substances and to health care and veterinary practitioners using controlled substances to provide care to patients/clients.
The
Office of Compliance provides
tutorials and offers a number of
forms to assist investigators in the Emory research community conducting bench research or animal research using Controlled Substances or Dangerous Drugs.
Biosafety Officers
The following are Emory University policies that govern research use of Controlled substances and Dangerous Drugs.
To work effectively within the university environment, you will collaborate with several regulatory offices on campus that have staff to assist you with the process.
Specific guidance on who to contact for each regulatory area (human subjects research, conflict of interest, environmental health and safety, and many more) is available in Chapter 3:
Regulatory Approvals of this handbook.
