Laws & regulations  
In the early 1980's, revised regulations for the conduct of research with humans were published, entitled Title 45 Code of Federal Regulations Part 46, Protection of Human Subjects (45 CFR 46).

The ethical principles of the Belmont Report are embodied in these regulations; taken together the Belmont Report and 45 CFR 46 articulate the minimal ethical and legal obligations of those who conduct or support research involving human subjects.

Among other things, these regulations require that each institution conducting federally-funded research adheres to the principles of the Belmont Report and sets forth in writing ethical principles, policies and procedures for protecting the rights and welfare of human research subjects. Our written statement is the

Stanford Federalwide Assurance for Protection of Human Subjects (FWA).
