Research Integrity
The 海角社区 promotes the responsible conduct of research through federally mandated oversight committees (Institutional Review Board for the Protection of Human Subjects [IRB] and Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee [IACUC]), which provide for public safety and ethical scientific procedures in all research that involves human or animal subjects, and the Institutional Biosafety Committee (IBC) which provides oversight of hazardous materials used in research. These committees assure compliance with all federal and state regulations and university policies that govern both funded and non-funded research. In addition to providing administrative support to the compliance committees, Research Integrity (RI) staff in the Office of Research and Sponsored Research help researchers navigate through the regulatory compliance review process by providing educational outreach and assistance with research protocol development.
