Human Research Protection Program
HRPP
The CUNY Human Research Protection Program (HRPP) is responsible for the protection of the rights and welfare of human subjects in research projects conducted at CUNY or by CUNY faculty, staff, and students.
The program provides oversight, administrative support, and educational training to ensure CUNY research complies with federal and state regulations, university policy, and the highest ethical standards.

Institutional Review Board
IRB
The CUNY Institutional Review Boards (IRB) are groups of research experts within the HRPP who must ensure that subjects are not exposed to risks, however minimal, without scientific justification, and that the risks are reasonable in relation to benefits. The IRB members accomplish this by evaluating whether the proposed research involves sound experimental design and has the potential to yield valid results. The IRBs are made up of research experts in several fields (community health, law, biology, psychology, etc.) and include CUNY faculty and/or professionals in the community. When necessary, the IRBs may seek expert consultants to assist in the review of research that requires expertise beyond or in addition to that available on the IRBs.
