Working with Controlled Substances

The vast majority of controlled substances at the Medical College of Wisconsin are employed in the use and care of research animals (e.g. analgesia or anesthesiology).  In rarer cases, researchers use controlled substances in vitro or in vivo involving tissues, animals, or human subjects.  It is imperative that acquisition, use, storage, and disposal of controlled substances conform to Federal and State laws.
