Registration of protocols for UK Institutional Biosafety Committee (IBC) review and approval requires the use of our web-based software, tick@lab by a-tune - https://uky.a-tune.com/tickatlab/default.aspx.
If you are new to UK and IBC registration, you must contact the Office of Biological Safety at biosafety@uky.edu and provide a list of all personnel associated with your IBC protocol registration. Please include first & last name and UK email address in your list.
Training for the use of the software are offered regularly via Zoom or in-person. Please contact the Office of Biological Safety at biosafety@uky.edu if you are interested in software training.
You can find how-to instructions for creating a new IBC protocol, amending an existing IBC protocol, and more in the tick@lab for IBC Protocol Management Help Library SharePoint site. Specific guidance documents are below.
