麻豆国产AV has established an Institutional Review Board (IRB) and five college committees to review all proposed research involving human subjects to ensure that the subjects' rights and welfare are adequately protected. The IRB is composed primarily of faculty members from disciplines in which research involving human subjects is integral to that discipline's work, as well members from the community whose primary interests are non-scientific. The human subjects review process is administered through the Office of Research. Researchers are REQUIRED to comply with the 麻豆国产AV Procedures for Review of Human Subjects Research.
The Office of Research has adopted the IRBNet suite of tools for use with our Institutional Review Board, Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee, Institutional Biosafety Committee, and the Human Subjects Review Committees housed within the College of Arts & Letters. This online protocol management system includes electronic submissions and reviews, electronic document management, web-based protocol sharing and collaboration, automatic notifications, integrated training and credential management, and important audit capabilities including electronic revision histories, electronic signatures and event tracking.
All human subject researchers, research administrators, and review committee members must obtain adequate training by completing the Human Subjects Research course. Online training is available via the Collaborative Institutional Training Initiative (CITI) website. New users of this site will need to affiliate themselves with 麻豆国产AV. Most all researchers in Arts & Letters should complete the Social-Behavioral Research (SBR) module NOT the Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR).
