Before beginning a
research activity, you need to answer three critical questions about it:
|
- Is the activity in which you will be engaged RESEARCH (as defined by the regulations)?
- Will the activity involve HUMAN SUBJECTS (as defined by the regulations)?
- Does the activity require regular IRB REVIEW AND APPROVAL, or does it qualify for an exempt review?
