For researchers
With the exception of OHRP’s 4th Annual Exploratory Workshop on third-party research risks–which we encourage you to attend!–there weren’t many external education sessions this month. So, in lieu of an Education Round-up, we’re sharing recent articles and opinion pieces that our research community may find interesting.

As a service to our research community, we periodically share upcoming non-Ohio State events, webinars, and workshops that may be of interest to human subjects researchers, research staff, and IRB members.
This month’s round-up focuses on diversity and inclusion in research participant populations; we’ll update the list as more events are announced. Also check out upcoming September events on citizen science and the IRB’s role in reviewing third-party research risks. All events are free or low-cost and open to the public but may require pre-registration.

Earlier this year, the Office of Responsible Research Practices held a two-part webinar series for researchers titled FDA-Regulated Research: Myth vs. Reality – Medical Devices. In this follow-up blog post, we cover where to find session materials and answer questions that we weren’t able to address during the session or that fell outside the scope of the learning objectives.
Re-post: How should a “reasonable” person approach key information?
The Revised Common Rule requires informed consent documents to begin with a concise summary of information that a “reasonable” person would want to know when deciding to participate or not participant in a research study. At the 2018 Advancing Ethical Research conference, panelists from the Office of Human Research Protections (OHRP), National Institutes of Health (NIH), and two research institutions discussed considerations for implementing the key information requirement.

On September 10, 2020, the Office of Responsible Research Practices held a webinar for researchers titled FDA-Regulated Research: Myth vs. Reality – Part 1: Drugs. In this follow-up blog post, we cover where to find session materials, introduce a “Test your knowledge” exercise, and answer questions that we weren’t able to address during the session or that fell outside the scope of the learning objectives.
