Beyond Reliance: Approaching Research Agreements With Confidence

Purchase Recording

Overview

As you start navigating the world of human research protections, you’ll quickly find that understanding written agreements is just as important as knowing the regulations. While reliance agreements are common and often follow a general structure, not every situation fits neatly into reliance situations. Depending on your role and the type of research, you may come across other types of agreements that require a closer look—and a bit of confidence to handle. This new session style will break down the essentials of agreements that go beyond reliance, including those involving independent investigators, data sharing, and material transfers. Through an interactive case study, you'll get a chance to explore real-world examples, ask questions, and see how your current practices compare with others. Whether you are brand new or just starting to dig deeper, this is a great opportunity to build your knowledge in a supportive, practical way. Join PRIM&R’s Director of Programs, Ianthe “Cookie” Bryant-Gawthrop to gain valuable insights, strengthen your agreement review skills, and build greater confidence in navigating the legal and ethical complexities of human research.
