This collection delivers accessible, plain-language explanations paired with expert guidance to deepen understanding of important elements in the protection of human subjects including IRB processes, informed consent, and regulatory compliance.

These webinars cover essential topics such as the foundational purpose and scope of the Common Rule, how to determine when an activity qualifies as human subjects research, and the distinctions between exemption categories. They also explore the use of data and biospecimens, considerations for institutional engagement, and effective informed consent practices rooted in ethical principles. Additionally, the logistics of IRB meetings and membership, types of IRB review, approval criteria under §46.111, and the enduring relevance of the Belmont Report’s ethical framework are covered.
