Is Your Research Considered to be &#8220; 91探花Research&#8221;?"},"content":{"rendered":"<h2>Why this matters<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>If your research is considered  91探花research, you must obtain approval from the  91探花Institutional Review Board (IRB) or from another IRB which HSD has agreed to allow you to use instead of the  91探花IRB.<\/li>\n<li>If your research is not  91探花research, you do not qualify for the use of the  91探花IRB.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Concept of engagement<\/h2>\n<p>Your research is considered to be  91探花research if it meets the criteria for \u201cengagement\u201d. Engagement is a federal regulatory concept that means an institution is (or is not) conducting human subjects research activities. It has nothing to do with the physical location of the research procedures.<\/p>\n<h2>Definition of engagement ( 91探花research)<\/h2>\n<p>Your research is considered to be  91探花research if it meets either of these criteria:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>The  91探花is receiving funding for the research (including any funding for salary support) through a grant, contract or cooperative agreement <strong>directly<\/strong> from a federal agency.\n<ul>\n<li>It does not matter whether some or all of the human subjects activities will be carried out by another organization.<\/li>\n<li>When some or all of the activities occur at an international site, the  91探花IRB will conduct a &#8220;dual review&#8221; with the local IRB or Ethics Review Committee (ERC). Review the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.washington.edu\/research\/hsd\/guidance\/international-research\/\">International Research Guidance<\/a> for more information.<\/li>\n<li>\u201cDirectly\u201d does not include a subcontract, pass-through, or flow-through funds from an organization that is the prime recipient of the federal research support.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li> 91探花students or paid employees are involved in the research by doing any of the following:\n<ul>\n<li>Performing research procedures with subjects<\/li>\n<li>Manipulating the environment of subjects for research purposes<\/li>\n<li>Interacting with subjects for any research purpose<\/li>\n<li>Obtaining informed consent from the subjects<\/li>\n<li>Obtaining for research purposes any identifiable private information or biological specimens even if there is no direct interaction with the subjects.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Consult the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washington.edu\/research\/forms-and-templates\/worksheet-engagement\/\">Engagement Worksheet<\/a> to review activities that do not engage an institution, such as when  91探花agents are only involved by providing identifiable  91探花records or specimens to researchers at another organization or are obtaining coded information or specimens from another institution.<\/p>\n<h2>Special cases for identifying  91探花research<\/h2>\n<p><strong> 91探花faculty who are not  91探花paid employees<\/strong>. Research conducted by these individuals is not considered to be  91探花research unless funding for the research is coming to the UW.\u00a0For example, many physicians at healthcare organizations that are not part of  91探花Medicine have  91探花Clinical Faculty appointments. Those appointments do not entitle them to use the  91探花IRB unless there is research funding coming to the UW.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fulbright scholars<\/strong>. It is not considered to be  91探花research when  91探花alumni or individuals from other institutions obtain a Fulbright scholarship, even if they obtained the Fulbright through the UW.<\/p>\n<p><strong>WWAMI students and residents.<\/strong> WWAMI students and residents are conducting  91探花research when they perform research in order to fulfill a  91探花degree or  91探花program related requirement, even if they are taking courses at another institution. The research may be reviewed by either the other institution&#8217;s IRB (after the student communicates with HSD and HSD establishes a reliance agreement with the IRB) or by the  91探花IRB.<\/p>\n<p><strong>WWAMI faculty<\/strong>. Research conducted by WWAMI faculty who are not UW-paid employees is not considered to be  91探花research.<\/p>\n<p><strong> 91探花alumni<\/strong>. Research conducted by former  91探花students is not considered to be  91探花research.<\/p>\n<h2>Request a determination (optional)<\/h2>\n<p>Use the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washington.edu\/research\/forms-and-templates\/worksheet-engagement\/\">Engagement Worksheet<\/a> to document your self-determination that the  91探花is not engaged in human subjects research activities.
