The Division of Veterinary Resources (DVR) is the unit responsible for the oversight and implementation of the animal care and use program. The DVR mission is to advance knowledge and improve the health and well being of humans and animals through excellent service and support, research and teaching.
Combining the functions of a traditional Privacy Office and Data Broker Services, Research Privacy’s mission is threefold: 1) to act as one of the institution’s gatekeepers of clinical data; 2) to oversee the proper use, disclosure, storage and access to clinical data for research and healthcare operations; and 3) to protect the privacy of UM’s research participants.
