Research Policies

At present, there is no centralized repository of all the research policies that exist within the global UW research infrastructure. CRIS hopes to be able to catalog all the research policies under one index file within this website but for now is posting links to sites where common research policies can be found. Please keep in mind that any entity (e.g., site, program, department, center) involved in or affected by research activities will likely have policies governing research and you should proactively seek to obtain and observe these policies.

• Human Research Protections Program
• Research Animal Resources Center
• Conflict of Interest Outside Activities Reports
