Human Subjects Research (IRB)

Human Subjects Research (IRB)

The Committee for the Protection of Human Subjects (CPHS) is CSU Monterey Bay's Institutional Review Board (IRB) for the review and authorization of research involving the use of humans or their personally identifiable private information for research purposes.

The CPHS is administered collaboratively by research compliance staff and the CPHS elected officers, under the Federalwide Assurance Institutional Officer the Provost and Vice President of Academic Affairs. 

To get started, please select from the navigation on the left based on who you are: a researcher, a participant, a regulatory partner, or a CPHS member.

If you need something specific, please select from the navigation on the left based on the task: get a checklist, form or link to policies, contact the CPHS or ask a question, or get current news about Human Subjects Research at CSUMB.

We look forward to working with you.
