Good Research Practices Education

The ECS-HSR recognizes that conducting a research study can be challenging and has developed a presentation entitled Good Research Practices.  This presentation is offered on a routine basis and on video.  However, if you would like to schedule a presentation for your research team email us at ECS-HSR@pitt.edu.

The presentation provides a brief two to three-hour review of:

  • Federal regulations and NIH policies surrounding GCPs in human subject research,
  • Investigator Responsibilities,
  • Tips for Protocol Adherence,
  • Informed Consent Process, 
  • Study Documentation, and 
  • Regulatory File Maintenance.

The presentation may be beneficial for the following individuals:   

  • Investigators new to research,
  • Investigators new to the University, 
  • Research staff new to research, or
  • Existing research staff.
