Human Subjects Research
The IRB at OSU CHS
OSU CHS upholds the highest standards in the ethical conduct of research, including
the protection of human participants, while enabling its faculty, staff and students
to conduct research in a timely and efficient manner. The primary mission of the OSU
CHS Institutional Review Board (IRB) is to facilitate those objectives by reviewing,
approving, modifying or disapproving research protocols submitted by OSU CHS researchers.
The IRB process is based on rules and regulations for federally funded research, primarily
the provisions of Protection of Human Subject in the Code of Federal Regulations (45
CFR 46), and supporting materials such as the Belmont Report. The OSU CHS IRB strives
to create on campus a culture of respect for, and awareness of, the rights and welfare
of human research participants, while advancing knowledge and facilitating the highest
quality research.
