Human Subjects Protection Program (HSPP)Welcome to the Human Subjects Protection Program (HSPP) of the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey.
 |
The mission of UMDNJ's HSPP is to support the University's research enterprise by ensuring the protection of individuals who participate in research; ensuring compliance with all pertinent federal and state laws and regulations; fostering the ethical conduct of human subjects research; and providing education and other services to the University's researchers regarding regulatory requirements and best practices. |
HSPP assures that UMDNJ fulfills its institutional responsibilities for the conduct of research involving human participants, under the University's three Federalwide Assurances filed with DHHS-Office of Human Research Protections (OHRP); the regulatory requirements of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA); state and local laws; institutional policy; and all applicable sponsor requirements.
UMDNJ's HSPP consists of three University IRB Campus Systems, in Newark, New Brunswick/Piscataway and Stratford/Camden, under three Federalwide Assurances (FWAs); a contractual relationship with Western IRB (WIRB) for review of industry-sponsored protocols conducted by UMDNJ faculty at UMDNJ performance sites; a program of education for faculty and other researchers; and an audit/review program for oversight of studies in progress. The links on this site provide IRB submission requirements and other information about each of UMDNJ's IRBs.
HSPP reports to the University's Associate Vice President for Research Regulatory Affairs, who is UMDNJ's Institutional Official and Research Integrity Officer.
