Research Integrity & Oversight (Regulatory)

We offer a robust infrastructure to ensure compliance and responsible conduct.

Johns Hopkins University and The Bloomberg School of Public Health provide a robust infrastructure to ensure that our research endeavors are conducted in compliance with all regulatory requirements and in partnership with the communities impacted.

These oversight activities include responsive grants administration support, review and monitoring of human subjects research through our institutional review boards (IRB), and providing continuing research education and training including on the responsible conduct of research. Further, we ensure compliance with reporting of outside activities and potential conflicts of interest or commitment and fully investigate any concerns of research misconduct.
