The Harvard School of Public Health (HSPH) is committed to protecting the rights and welfare of participants in Human Research. The organization's Human Research Protection Program (HRPP) is a comprehensive system working together in order to ensure the protection of the rights and welfare of participants in Human Research. It is comprised of the HSPH leadership, Institutional Review Board (IRB), Quality Improvement Program (QIP), investigators and their study staff, and relevant departments and units.
The Office of Human Research Administration (OHRA) is composed of the IRB Operations and QIP and has actively been engaged in preparing for AAHRPP Accreditation. Towards this end, OHRA has updated its website, revised and streamlined its forms, and developed an Investigator Manual and HRPP Plan. Please familiarize yourself with our new and updated procedures.
