Stem Cell Usage

Interested in using stem cells while at Bakar Labs?

If so, you will need to obtain Stem Cell Research Oversight Committee (SCRO) and/or IACUC approval. This requires a committee-based review, similar to the BUA process. Note that there are fees involved in this process. Due to the fees, SCRO will not review an application until they confirm a company has a signed lease at Bakar Labs.

Here is some general information: https://rac.berkeley.edu/scro.html

To start your review, reach out to Carrie A Des Roches (scro_office@berkeley.edu; cadesroc@berkeley.edu), SCRO Administrator, who will walk you through the process. An overview of the costs for the review process, as well as some details on the lengths of approvals can be found here. These fees are accurate as of July 2024.
