Dear Research Community:

To: WVU Health Science Center Clinical Research Investigators and Coordinators 

Dear Research Community:

Please review this letter from Dr. Fred King regarding research studies studies that involve DOD funding and/or include DOD personnel as a targeted population.

There has been a delay of the Revised Common Rule.

In response to rising costs associated with growing regulatory demands related to clinical research, fees associated with reviews of industry sponsored clinical trials involving human subjects research will be increasing as of July 1, 2019.

Part 1: Overview

In ongoing efforts to improve efficiency and reduce burden, research submissions in WVU+kc will no longer require sign-off by a unit administrator (UA). Instead, UAs will receive notifications of study submissions via email that require no additional action.

WVU's Procurement Contracting and Payment Services department is offering a new prepaid card program effective (July 1) for all payments to participants in human subjects research. The new system, the Vincent Prepaid Card System is available now. For more information and assistance contact Procurement Contracting and Payment Services.
