What is research non-compliance?
Research non-compliance is any action or activity associated with the conduct or oversight of research involving human subjects that fails to comply with federal or state regulations or institutional policies governing such research. Noncompliance actions may range from minor to serious, be unintentional or willful, and may occur only once or several times. The degree of noncompliance is evaluated on a case by case basis and will take into account such considerations as to what degree subjects were harmed or placed at an increased risk of harm and willfulness of the noncompliance. Please see Rules and Procedures for Responding to Allegations of Research Misconduct.
