• Easy and convenient access to a huge variety of procedures that are in use at institutions across the country. 
• Reading a broad range of procedures and comparing them can help researchers learn about new procedures and also identify novel approaches and refinements to procedures they already use. 
• Providing researchers across the country with access to detailed methodological descriptions of the same procedures will help support consistency within and across institutions. 
• Makes possible direct communication with the research group that posted the procedure if follow-up questions arise.  Note that it is optional to submit contact information.  Institutions contributing procedures may remain anonymous if they choose 

We will provide access to the CUSP database of standard procedures. A designated Institutional Representative (IR) will set up the user accounts and then help you to view and download procedures from within CUSP.  You can use keywords to specifically search for a procedure or browse a field such as chinchilla anesthesia procedures. Once a procedure is in our institution’s database, it will have to be approved by the IACUC before it can be used.. It will then be added to the database of Standard Procedures that can be selected by any researcher to use in their protocol.
