Human Research Subjects Protections Program Outreach

近年来，人类受试者的研究受到了越来越多的关注。这导致了对加强保护研究对象和加强对人类研究的监督的要求。维克森林大学健康科学(WFUHS)致力于维持最高的道德标准，并遵守保护人类研究对象的联邦法规。为了履行这一承诺，WFUHS机构审查委员会(IRB)已开始与其他地区的学术和医疗机构合作，制定IRB和教育联合活动。发展和扩大协调的IRB活动有助于确保研究对象的安全、权利和福利，同时减少对机构资源的总体影响。我们建议进一步加强对人类研究对象的保护，并与其他当地机构发展协调的教育和IRB活动：(1)扩大研究方案电子提交、审查和跟踪系统的实施(技术开发)，以支持与索尔兹伯里退伍军人管理局医学中心和其他地区学术和医疗机构协调IRB活动(2)开发新的教育计划，重点关注当前与研究对象保护相关的主题，并促进地区调查人员、管理人员和IRB成员获得这些计划。这项提议将加强对人类受试者的保护，该机构将在获奖后维持这一手段。

In recent years, human subjects research has come under increasing scrutiny. This has resulted in demands for enhanced protection of research subjects and increased oversight of human research. Wake Forest University Health Sciences (WFUHS) is committed to maintaining the highest ethical standards and compliance with federal regulation for the protection of human research subjects. To meet this commitment, the WFUHS Institutional Review Board (IRB) has begun working with other area academic and medical institutions to develop joint IRB and educational activities. Development and expansion of coordinated IRB activities helps ensure the safety, rights and welfare of research subjects while decreasing the overall impact on institutional resources. We propose the following aims to further strengthen the protection of human research subjects and to develop coordinated educational and IRB activities with other local institutions: (1) Expand the implementation of systems for the electronic submission, review and tracking of research protocols (technology development) to support coordination of IRB activities with the Salisbury Veterans Administration Medical Center and other area academic and medical institutions (2) Develop new educational programs that focus on current topics related to the protection of research subjects and promote the availability of these programs to area investigators, administrators and IRB members. This proposal will strengthen the protection of human subjects by means that will be sustained by the institution after the award.
