OCR Policies

Purpose

Investigators at Indiana University (IU) and Indiana University Health may be required to use the Office of Clinical Research (OCR) to provide administrative services when conducting human subjects clinical research. IU, IU Health, and the OCR have established various policies, procedures, and guidelines to communicate the scope of these requirements. At times, investigators and their study teams may question the applicability or necessity of our services; or be found to be non-compliant with policy expectations. The purpose of this policy is to document OCR internal review and escalation of such concerns.
