HumanSubjectsInvolvementIndefinite?Prefilled from the Research and Related Other Project Information form. If activitiesinvolving human subjects are not planned at any time during the proposed project atany performance site, skip the remainder <strong>of</strong> the block and continue to OtherResearch Training Plan Sections. If you have indicated “Yes” for Human Subjectsinvolvement, consult with your Sponsor and Administrative Officials at theSponsoring Institution before completing this section, and refer to Part IISupplemental Instructions for Preparing the Human Subjects Section <strong>of</strong> theResearch Training Plan. Human subjects requirements may apply even if you areobtaining specimens/data from collaborators or if you are subcontracting the humanresearch to another organization. For all research involving human subjects, a part<strong>of</strong> the peer review process will include careful consideration <strong>of</strong> protections fromresearch risks, as well as the appropriate inclusion <strong>of</strong> women, minorities, andchildren. The Scientific Review Group (SRG) will assess the adequacy <strong>of</strong>safeguards <strong>of</strong> the rights and welfare <strong>of</strong> research participants, and the appropriateinclusion <strong>of</strong> women, minorities, and children, based on the information in theapplication. The evaluation <strong>of</strong> the inclusion plans will be factored into the overallscore that the SRGs award for scientific and technical merit <strong>of</strong> the application.Much <strong>of</strong> the information on the protection <strong>of</strong> human subjects that you are requiredto provide in the <strong>Fellowship</strong> application is identical to information that you will berequired to provide for IRB review at your own institution.Do not use the protection <strong>of</strong> human subjects section to circumvent the page limits <strong>of</strong>the Research Strategy.Check “Yes” if at the time <strong>of</strong> application plans to involve human subjects areunknown. If an award is made, the fellow may not participate in human subjectsresearch until an updated research training plan is submitted and approved by theawarding component. Such a plan must be developed in consultation with thesponsor. Certification <strong>of</strong> the date <strong>of</strong> IRB approval must also be submitted before thefellow can participate in human subjects research.7. Clinical Trial Check the “Yes” or “No” box to indicate whether the project is a clinical trial. TheNIH defines a clinical trial as a prospective biomedical or behavioral research study<strong>of</strong> human subjects that is designed to answer specific questions about biomedical orbehavioral interventions (drugs, treatments, devices, or new ways <strong>of</strong> using knowndrugs, treatments, or devices).Part I: Instructions for Preparing and Submitting an <strong>Application</strong> I-88
