With much anticipation, the Office of Human Research Protections (OHRP) released the final version of the 2018 Common Rule on January 19, 2017. However, with the issuance of an Interim Final Rule on January 22, 2018, the changes are not to be implemented until July 19, 2018. The HRPP at Wake Forest University Health Sciences has developed a short survey to assess the time and effort put into preparing for the 2018 Common Rule before this announcement of the Interim Final Rule. The results of the survey may be useful as IRBs prepare to allocate resources for the future effective date. Complete the survey to share your feedback on the amount of time spent preparing for the 2018 Common Rule, strategies that your institution plans to employ, and what additional guidance would be most helpful.
