Study Design
A study must minimize the risks of the experiment. Investigators are strongly encouraged to contact Biostatistics & Research Epidemiology at (313) 874-6360 for assistance with research design. More information from the U.S. Food & Drug Administration regarding good clinical practice can be found on the Federal Regulations page. <<< Back |

The
primary consideration of the Institutional Review Board (IRB) is to protect
the rights and
welfare of human research subjects by approving research that is
founded on good
clinical practice and evidence-based scientific reasoning. The importance
of designing research that is based on complete scientific background investigation
and consideration
of
all possible implications for the subjects cannot be underestimated.
