VCU Human Research Protection Program (HRPP) Blog

The VCU HRPP is dedicated to facilitating ethically and scientifically sound research through robust review of research projects and through effective education and outreach to the VCU research community.

The IRB has created a new Guidance Document detailing how to enroll low-English Proficiency (LEP) individuals in research.

The guidance document outlines the importance of equitable selection and the justice principle, lists available resources, including interpretation and translation services, and describes the newly implemented Short Form consent process.

The document can be found on the IRB’s Guidance and Policy page.
