Human Subjects' Protection Program
Welcome
The Human Subjects' Protection Program (HSPP) has developed this site as a resource for everyone involved with human subject research at Texas A&M University. Whether you are a potential research participant, current research participant, investigator, administrator or interested community member, there is something here for you!
In conjunction with the federally mandated Institutional Review Board (IRB), the HSPP works to assure the protection of human research participants and to ensure TAMU's compliance with the laws and regulations governing human subject research. Any human subject research conducted by TAMU faculty, staff or students must be reviewed and approved prior to being initiated. Also, any other party wishing to conduct research using TAMU employees or students as subjects must secure authorization prior to recruiting participants.
As you navigate the site, please note any suggestions you have for improving the site or its content. We are dedicated to making this an informative and effective resource for all users.
