We strive to promote excellence in research while ensuring compliance with federal and state regulations. The Office of Research Integrity has oversight and responsibility over:
Two IRBs: IRB-SB & IRB-Clin. These boards are required by federal regulations to review all human subjects research conducted on behalf of the institution. The function of the IRBs is to ensure adherence to all federal, state, local, and institutional regulations concerning the protection of human subjects. UCR IRB review is required for both funded and non-funded human subjects research.
