On behalf of the Human Research Protection Office, Washington
University investigators, and their patients, thank you for
volunteering to be a reviewer. Your time and effort helps the
Human Research Protection Office (HRPO) ensure the safety of
patients enrolled in clinical trials.
Your
task as a reviewer is to affirm the ethical nature and safety of
the studies you are given to review. It is also to ensure that
valuable information can and will be obtained from the
experiment, in reasonable balance to participant risk. In doing
so, you will be protecting the autonomy of research
participants, ensuring a balance of benefits and harms, and
ensuring that those benefits and harms are fairly distributed.
