Health Research Projects
Conduct of Health Research Projects
The interests and safety of research participants must be safeguarded in all phases of a health research project.
It is the responsibility of the project manager or responsible researcher to ensure that the project is conducted in compliance with prior approvals and any agreements that constitute the basis of the project, see Formalisation.
In health research, it is crucial that the research participants' interests and safety are safeguarded in all phases of the project. This includes ensuring that the participants are not exposed to unnecessary risk of injury or strain, as well as taking necessary precaution to protect the participants’ confidentiality and integrity during processing of research data.
