HCR 574 studies scientific and research review boards: the regulations and history behind them, informed consent and HIPAA, IRB review policies and operations, risk-benefit analysis, vulnerable populations, data safety monitoring boards and research integrity. Its three-part exercise is sampled here: a gap analysis of an IRB’s procedures against the revised Common Rule, a narrated deck applying the rule to a multisite trial and a comparison of federal rules for human and animal research.

Send the exact assignment or rubric from your classroom and a custom sample written to it lands in 24 to 48 hours, the first one free. HCR 574 is ASU’s Scientific and Research Review Boards course. HCR 574 Scientific and Research Review Boards examines how IRBs and related committees review research, from regulations and policy to board operations, member roles, DSMBs and research integrity, using Mazur’s Evaluating the Science and Ethics of Research on Humans.

What HCR 574 is really about

Weeks cover regulations, laws and historical milestones, informed consent and HIPAA, IRB review policies and procedures, board operations and member roles, risk-benefit analysis and vulnerable populations, DSMBs and research integrity with conflicts of interest.

Students post three discussions, take two quizzes and a final exam, write a course reflection and complete one three-part exercise in Week 4.

What HCR 574’s assessments ask for

The posted syllabus totals 1,000 points: two quizzes 320, the three-part exercise 200, the final exam 200, discussions 180 and the reflection 100.

Where students lose points in HCR 574

Points slip when the revised rule is described from secondary summaries and misstated, when the deck lists changes without applying them and when the animal comparison describes each system separately or misstates which species the Animal Welfare Act covers.
