- SDSU/UCSD Agreement
for Joint Faculty Protocol Review: When faculty from
both SDSU and UCSD jointly conduct a research study involving human
subjects, the study must receive approval from each institution's
Institutional Review Board in advance of initiating research. We are
pleased to announce that an agreement is in place for a cooperative
review of research protocols involving SDSU/UCSD faculty. Under this
agreement, one campus will serve as the "reviewing" IRB and the other
as the "relying" IRB. More information about the agreement and
procedures for submitting an application can be found here. (Released 5/25/10)
- HRPP
Push-->2-->Paperless (P-->2-->P): The HRPP is proud to
announce the HRPP P-->2-->P. After July 14, 2010, the HRPP Office,
with a few specific exceptions, will no longer accept hard copy
documents. The HRPP is going "paperless" for many reasons including
reduction of paper consumption and costs; to increase ease of document
submission, control, security and sharing; quicker access to
information; and the ability to have copies of documents viewed by
multiple users. For more information, please see the P-->2-->P
FAQ that is available here. (Released
