Case Study: Top-Tier University achieves HRPP compliance and protects federal funding with Advarra’s HRPP Assessment

Top-Tier University Stays Compliant with Advarra’s HRPP Assessment

Top-Tier University faced the prospect of losing federal research funding because its Human Research Protection Program (HRPP) and IRB policies needed a comprehensive compliance review. The university engaged Advarra’s Institutional Research Center of Excellence (CoE) for an HRPP Assessment to evaluate policies, procedures and operations against federal regulations and industry best practices.

Advarra’s CoE experts performed a detailed assessment, producing a report that identified IRB compliance gaps and provided recommended corrective action plans. As a result, Top-Tier University closed programmatic gaps, mitigated the risk of losing federal funding, and is now better equipped to conduct ethical, compliant human subjects research and sustain its research activities.
