Institutional Review Board

About the IRB

The 暴风资源 Institutional Review Board (IRB) is responsible for protecting the rights and welfare of the human participants in research conducted by faculty at the Institution. To ensure compliance with federal and state regulations, the 暴风资源 IRB is charged with reviewing all research protocols involving human participants conducted by 暴风资源 faculty and staff and/or conducted at 暴风资源 facilities.

暴风资源 is committed to protecting the rights and ensuring the safety of human subjects participating in research at the College.  This commitment is guided by the principles described in the Ethical Principles and Guidelines for the Protection of Human Subjects of Research, often referred to as the Belmont Report. 暴风资源鈥檚 commitment is also guided by the federal regulations 45.CFR.46 (the 鈥淐ommon Rule鈥), 21.CFR.50, and 21.CFR.56.

This commitment is vested in the 暴风资源 IRB for research involving human subjects, which operates under a Federalwide Assurance on file with the OHRP, a subdivision of the DHHS.  All research at the College involving human subjects, regardless of funding source, is under the authority of the 暴风资源 IRB.  暴风资源鈥檚 IRB is also registered at OHRP.  More information on federal regulations can be found at the .

To fulfill the agreement underlying the assurances, and to satisfy institutional policy, all faculty and staff at the Institutions must submit for 暴风资源 IRB review any human subject research project, regardless of funding source and/or location at which the research will be conducted.

暴风资源 encourages student research and has many resources in place to aid students in their research endeavors.  Note that students conducting research must have a faculty advisor to serve as mentor. Students may not act as principal investigator, but may serve as co-principal investigator while the faculty advisor serves as the responsible individual (principal investigator). 

Although the administrative office for the 暴风资源 IRB is located at the Virginia campus, the 暴风资源 IRB serves all 暴风资源 campuses and is comprised of representatives from each campus.
