Sec. 26.114  Cooperative research.



    Cooperative research projects are those projects covered by this 

policy which involve more than one institution. In the conduct of 

cooperative research projects, each institution is responsible for 

safeguarding the rights and welfare of human subjects and for complying 

with this policy. With the approval of the department or agency head, an 

institution participating in a cooperative project may enter into a 

joint review arrangement, rely upon the review of another qualified IRB, 

or make similar arrangements for avoiding duplication of effort.
