Understanding Research

Research shapes the way we live, heal, and grow—but the systems that support ethical research are often invisible.

At PRIM&R, we believe that public understanding and trust are essential to responsible research. Learn how research works, how ethics are upheld, and how people—research participants, oversight professionals, communities, and researchers—are all part of the process.
