OHRP International Guidence Now Available
Recognizing the continued growth of international
research, the Office for Human Research Protections has developed
an International Compilation of Human Subject Research Protections.
The Compilation lists the laws, regulations, and guidelines
of over 50 countries where DHHS funded or supported research
is conducted.
The Compilation provides direct web links
to each country's Key Organizations and laws, whenever available.
OHRP believes this Compilation will help IRBs, researchers,
and others to meet regulatory requirements to assure that research
studies comply with applicable law.
The Compilation can be accessed on the OHRP
website: http://www.hhs.gov/ohrp/international/index.html#NatlPol .
To use the Compilation, go to page 3 and then click on the
country of interest.
