While technologies like wearable sensors and social network platforms hold promise for understanding health behaviors, these strategies for gathering data include ethical, legal, and social implications (ELSIs) that must be considered.
Ongoing Study Oversight: Ensuring Protocol Compliance through Postapproval Monitoring
RECORDED
The challenges of providing ongoing study oversight to animal and human research protocols have continually increased because of such developments as increasing complexity of the research, institutional and public pressures, and changing regulations. What has not changed, however, is the institution responsibility to maintain oversight through its IACUC and HRPP.
