AAHRPP promotes high-quality, ethically sound research through an accreditation process that helps organizations worldwide strengthen their human research protection programs (HRPPs).
An independent, non-profit accrediting body, AAHRPP uses a voluntary, peer-driven, educational model to ensure that HRPPs meet rigorous standards for quality and protection. To earn accreditation, organizations must provide tangible evidence through policies, procedures, and practices of their commitment to scientifically and ethically sound research and continuous improvement.
As the "gold seal," AAHRPP accreditation offers assurances to research participants, researchers, sponsors, government regulators, and the general public that an HRPP is focused first and foremost on excellence.
“After a tremendous amount of work by both our staff and our IRB Members, MidLands IRB has achieved full accreditation,” according to Cathy Owen, CIM, CIP, CCRP, President and CEO of MLIRB. “The rigorous and comprehensive accreditation mandated by AAHRPP provides MidLands IRB with the ability to achieve even higher levels of protection for human research participants,” Ms. Owen said.
