My site is in California, but the contents of the California Experimental Subjects’ Bill of Rights don’t apply to my research project. Can I ask WIRB to omit the Bill from my approved consent form?
Yes, WIRB will consider omitting the Bill from your approved consent form, but WIRB will not automatically exclude the Bill from your consent form — sites that believe the Bill is not applicable to their research and that desire to see it omitted from their consent form must submit a request for WIRB to omit the Bill. The request may be submitted at the time of initial review or as a change in research review request. WIRB review fees apply for requests submitted as changes in research.
