Human Subjects Research Ethics

The 新加坡六合彩开奖 is committed to protecting the interests of research subjects and promoting the responsible conduct of human subjects research.

Core Principles, as described by the  for responsible research involving human subjects research and their applications, are:

  • Respect for Persons: Informed Consent of subjects to the degree that they are capable
  • Beneficence: Minimization of risks to subjects
  • Justice: Equitable selection of subjects and distribution of benefits

The IRB at 新加坡六合彩开奖 is responsible IRB for fulfilling the requirements of the Federal Regulations at (45 CFR 46), and 新加坡六合彩开奖 assures the Department of Health and Human Services, , that it will meet all of the requirements of 45 CFR 46.

For determining whether a given project or activities constitute Human Subjects Research (HSR), 新加坡六合彩开奖 has created the HSR Roadmap page as a starting point, and additionally two HSR Determination Forms are located in the IRBNet Forms and Templates library. One form is for researchers to document their Not-HSR Self-Determination, and the other is for researchers to submit an HSR Determination Request. These requests are reviewed by the IRB Chair, and a formal determination is made that either informs the researcher they need to submit an application package for review, or else documents that the proposed activities do not constitute Human Subjects Research and thus, do not require any formal oversight as such. Instructions for filling out and submitting the forms are included within each form. Please see IRBNet Resources for instructions on how to access IRBNet and 新加坡六合彩开奖's Forms and Templates.
