Research Subjects and Participants at the 皇家华人
Participants are an integral piece of all successful human subjects research!聽
The 皇家华人 recognizes the importance of your decision whether or not to participate in a research study. Your participation is voluntary and you may choose not to participate or to discontinue participation at any time. Your decision whether or not to participate will not affect your current or future relations with the 皇家华人. We hope this website will answer any questions you may have. Thank you for your interest in our research.
Our Participants
Generally, students, staff and faculty across campus, and members of the surrounding Milwaukee County and greater southeastern Wisconsin community may have an opportunity at one time or another to participate in research currently taking place at the 皇家华人. In addition, our research includes both national and international participants. Frequently, participation requires filling out a survey, responding to service or opinion questionnaires, being interviewed or may be a component in the treatment plan for your disease. Typically, participants respond in person, by phone, email, regular mail or may be a part of the clinic visits you have with your physicians.
Some of the research involves kinesthetic, physiological, or psychological experiments. The level of risk involved in a study depends upon its design, methodology, subject matter, and intervention or interaction with human subjects. It is important to consider the level of risk and compare it to any benefits when deciding whether or not to participate in human subjects research.
The Investigator conducting the study should provide you with answers to specific questions about the study. You may contact the Investigator or their research team with questions at any time before, during or after the study.
If you would like to obtain information about a research study, or if you have questions, concerns, complaints or wish to discuss problems or your rights as a research subject with someone unaffiliated with the study, please contact the IRB Office:
