Web-Based IRB Data Management and Archiving System

申请资金以许可和调整贝勒研究和阿斯彭信息网络（BRAIN），供马里兰州巴尔的摩大学使用。BRAIN是一个用于创建、路由、批准和存档IRB文件的在线系统，自2001年8月以来一直在贝勒使用。BRAIN将大大增强我们评估新IRB方案、监督现行方案以及记录在马里兰州巴尔的摩大学主持下进行涉及人类受试者研究的所有个人的责任和问责制的能力。此外，该系统有望简化行政流程，这将使我们能够腾出员工的时间，用于增加教育计划，增加对PI和研究人员的个性化支持，以及增加合规监督活动。

Funds are requested to license and adapt the Baylor Research and Assurances Information Network (BRAIN) for use at the University of Maryland Baltimore. BRAIN is an online system for creating, routing, approving, and archiving IRB documents that has been in use at Baylor since August 2001. BRAIN will greatly enhance our capacity to evaluate new IRB protocols, to oversee active protocols, and to document responsibilities and accountability of all individuals conducting research involving human subjects under the auspices of the University of Maryland Baltimore. In addition, the system promises to streamline administrative processes, which will enable us to free up staff time that will be deployed towards increased education initiatives, increased individualized support for Pl's and research personnel, and increased compliance oversight activities.
