Institutional Review Board for Human Subjects Research

 
 
 
 

Introduction

Abu Dhabi University recognizes its ethical and legal responsibilities to provide a mechanism to protect individuals involved as subjects in research conducted under the auspices of the University. Therefore, all research involving human subjects is reviewed, prior to the initiation of the research, through the procedures set forth by the University and directed by the Institutional Review Board (IRB). Failure to submit a research project involving human subjects for review and approval is a violation of Abu Dhabi University policy.

University faculty, staff, and students conducting human subject research are responsible for complying with this policy. The IRB reserves the authority to suspend or terminate approval of research that is not being conducted in accordance with this policy.
