Office of Research Subject ProtectionsHuman SubjectsThe Human Subjects Protection Program is an integrated program for promoting excellence in all aspects of research with humans. Components include the Human Subjects Review Board, and other institutional review units (such as the Institutional Biosafety Committee and the Radiation Safety Committee), oversight functions and educational activities that together seek to assure the rights and welfare of human subjects of research and promote excellence in all aspects of humam subject research. All research with human subjects must be submitted to the Office of Research Subject Protections and approved prior to initiation of the research. Human Subjects Review Board (HSRB)The primary goal of the HSRB is to assure that the rights and welfare of human research subjects recruited to participate in research activities conducted at and/or under the auspices of George Mason University are adequately protected. The HSRB reviews all planned research involving human subjects prior to the initiation of the research, approves research that meets Federal regulations and Mason policies for the protection of human subjects and monitors approved research to ascertain that human subjects are indeed protected. This includes all research by Mason faculty, staff, and students conducted at Mason or at off-campus sites, with the exception of some classroom projects. As well, any research conducted at Mason by outside researchers, must be reviewed and approved by the HSRB. All researchers must receive written approval from the Office of Research Subject Protections prior to conducting either exempt or non-exempt research. Getting Started: |
