Why should addressing peer review be a priority?
Increasing Industry-initiated research
Increasing entrepreneurship by researchers
It is pivotal to the credibility of every element in our CCAC-based system
What’s the issue?

What’s the issue?
First principles:
ACC Approvals process involves balancing:
COST (ethical, 3Rs… ACC)
Vs
BENEFIT (scientific, human, animal… peer review)

A possibly-true story…
Firefighters fund – burn researchLocal academic clinician/departmental/ ACC approvalResearch didn’t prosper… whistleblowerMedia event – approvals process queriedDiscredited: researcher…faculty…institution…CCAC

ACCs: Insist that evidence of peer review be presented before any protocol is approved …but do not participate in process (conflict-of-interest issue)
CCAC: (Further) develop guidelines for Institutional peer review process
Serious Recommendations!

Arm’s–length criteria (e.g. Research Administration) re: processConflict-of-interest criteriaInternal/external reviewer criteriaQuality-of-review criteria, e.g.:
Relevance of animal modelApproach/interpretability of resultsBenefits anticipatedInvestigator experience/expertise
CCAC Guidelines should include:
