The Human Studies Subcommittee (IRB)
is a component of the Research and Development (R&D) Committee. The
R&D Committee and the IRB have been entrusted with the responsibility of
insuring that research at the Louis Stokes Cleveland VA Medical Center
is conducted under the most rigorous ethical standards in order to assure
the protection of the rights, welfare, and safety of the veteran patients
under our care.
Approval of a project by the IRB indicates conformity
with the Federal Guidelines for Studies Involving Human Subjects known as the "Common
Rule." Copies of the VHA Handbook 1200.5, Requirements for Protection of Human
Subjects in research and the Federal Policy for Protection of Human Subjects;
Notices and Rules, and local policies are available through the IRB.
