Research Ethics Resources
Office for Human Research Protections Research Ethics Video Series
PRIM&R is pleased to partner with the Office for Human Research Protections (OHRP) to provide free access to a series of educational videos on key topics in human research protections. OHRP, a division of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), ensures compliance with federal regulations designed to safeguard human subjects in research.
This video series covers fundamental ethical and regulatory concepts that impact researchers, Institutional Review Boards (IRBs), and institutions engaged in human subjects research. Each session, led by experts from OHRP, provides practical insights and guidance on compliance with the Common Rule (45 CFR 46) and other regulatory frameworks.
Learn the history of research ethics told by the people who developed the field.
Build connections with peers on the IRB Forum, IACUC Channel and SBER Network.
PRIM&R's Commitment to Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Justice (DEIJ)
Science is essential to the health and well-being of humans, non-human animals, and the environment.
We believe that everyone must have fair and equitable access to the benefits of science. We are mindful of past and continuing inequities in people’s access to participating in and benefiting from science. Working to eliminate systemic injustices in the research endeavor is at the core of our mission to advance ethical research. It is integrated into our operations and our program offerings, which are designed to facilitate an expansive and dynamic understanding and implementation of diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice within the broader research community.
We believe that inclusion of a diversity of perspectives, backgrounds, and experiences is fundamental to the work of advancing ethical research. Our community is enriched by the differences among our staff, constituents, and partners, and we appreciate the intersectionality of the multiple visible and invisible dimensions of individual identity, which are shaped by lived experience and situational factors.
We are cognizant that diversity, like all social constructs, evolves over time. We will continue to cultivate and sustain an environment of consciousness, inclusivity, accessibility, respect, humility, and openness to change in all that we do.
