Federal inspectors have cited OHSU for violating animal welfare laws after five prairie voles died of thirst.
The Oregonian reported that the U.S.D.A also cited the university after a person risked contaminating surgical tools while probing a ferret’s brain with an electrode.
The violations come after inspectors performed a routine inspection of the university’s animal research facilities in Portland.
Two anti-animal research groups have urged the federal government to put an end to the university’s work.
