Human Research Protections News

Timely information supporting human research ethics, quality, and compliance across the research enterprise.

The VCU Human Research Protection Program would like to inform the VCU research community about the availability of a new educational resource on the topic of re-consenting children who reach the age of majority during a research study.

This 15 minute video lecture covers relevant definitions, requirements for parental permission and assent, as well as the requirements to obtain re-consent from children who “age up” during a research study.

The video is posted below, but can also be accessed on our guidance webpage, under the “Informed Consent” accordion.
