HRPP/IRB Services

We offer a variety of services to assist our Human Research Protection Program (HRPP) and our Institutional Review Boards (IRBs):

• Routine Monitoring of investigators' human subject research activities under the oversight of the USF Human Research Protection Program for compliance with Federal regulations, state laws, and institutional policies and procedures.
• For-Cause Audits of investigators' human subject research records; audits of these studies are performed at the request of the USF IRB or IRB administration when there is known or suspected noncompliance with federal regulations, state laws or HRPP policies and procedures governing human subject protections.
• Audit Report Preparation & Presentation to the USF IRB as needed based on evaluation findings.
