Our Research Compliance Services unit supports the Committee for the Protection of Human Subjects (CPHS), which serves as the University of Oregon's Institutional Review Board (IRB). The mission of the CPHS/IRB is to protect the rights and welfare of people participating in University of Oregon research.
For information on human subjects research, including instructions on applying for review and approval of research projects involving human subjects, please see the links below.
All studies (both RAP and Legacy) can now be accessed in the RAP. See the Transitioning Studies to the RAP for more information. Access the RAP here.
Reminders - Submit/Resubmit:
- If you are working on a new submission, make sure you click "Submit" on the left hand side of the page in the RAP (under Next Steps) to submit your study for review. The review process cannot begin until this step is complete.
- If you were asked to make changes during IRB review, make sure you click "Submit Response" on the left hand side of the page in the RAP (under Next Steps) to resubmit your study for review. The review process cannot continue until this step is complete.
If you have questions, please contact Research Compliance Services.
