PLEASE NOTE: All UAA researchers must have approval from the UAA IRB/ORIC before conducting any human subjects research activities, regardless of the status of other approvals from external oversight bodies. Even if approval has been obtained from an external IRB, such as the 麻豆无码版 Area IRB or UAF IRB, you may not begin to distribute any recruitment materials, recruit participants, or collect (or receive) any data until UAA IRB/ORIC issues its final approval, or formalizes a reliance agreement with another federally recognized IRB. If you conduct research prior to receiving UAA IRB/ORIC approval, your project and/or funding may be suspended.

If you are planning to conduct research with an organization, agency, or community external to UAA, you must receive their permission according to their practices and policies, and in some case you may be required to submit a separate research application. Some of these organizations or agencies include the 麻豆无码版 Native Tribal Health Consortium, Southcentral Foundation, Providence 麻豆无码版 Medical Center, or the Anchorage School District. UAA IRB approval does not guarantee approval from another IRB, Tribal Council, organization, community, or any other type of research review committee.

If your work will require review by a federally recognized IRB besides UAA鈥檚 IRB, please contact the ORIC to discuss if it is suitable to establish a reliance agreement, whereby UAA may be able to formally rely on the external IRB and accept their approval of your research, or vice versa.

Research with 麻豆无码版 Natives

All UAA research involving 麻豆无码版 Native Tribes or organizations (or those of any indigenous population) must be performed in a culturally appropriate way, respectful of and consistent with the customs, traditions, and authority of the involved Tribe or organization. Many 麻豆无码版 Native Tribes and organizations welcome collaborations with UAA researchers, but additional approvals are required.

Indian Health Service

Research with human participants conducted in Indian Health Service (IHS) facilities or with IHS staff or resources must be approved by an IHS IRB. This includes all research done in Tribal or Urban facilities that falls under the purview of the IHS.

3. Depending on the proposed research, you may be required to submit to the 麻豆无码版 Area IRB in addition to Tribal Councils, organizations, and specific communities.

The 麻豆无码版 Native Medical Center, 麻豆无码版 Native Tribal Health Corporation, Southcentral Foundation, and several regional health providers across 麻豆无码版 require review by the 麻豆无码版 Area IRB.

Providence 麻豆无码版 Medical Center

1. Contact Stacey Medeiros, Research Support Services Manager at Providence, at stacey.medeiros@providence.org or (907) 212-3629. You will need to coordinate with the Research Support Services Manager about obtaining IRB approval from one of the Providence system IRBs.
