The Human Research Protection Program (HRPP) serves participants in human research by coordinating the safety, ethics, and regulatory reviews of research projects. In addition, the HRPP oversees the conduct of research projects to ensure ongoing compliance with the approved protocol, federal regulation, state and local laws, and institutional policy.
The HRPP consists, in part, of the Institutional Review Board, Office of Sponsored Programs, Medical Radiation Safety Committee, Institutional Conflict of Interest Office, Radioactive Drug Research Committee, Biosafety Committee, Comprehensive Cancer Center Protocol Review Committee, Clinical Research Unit, Clinical Trials Office, Investigational Pharmacy, department specific review committees, and the Study Teams who carry out human research.
