[top] Need and Proposed Use of the Information: The information collected through the Protection of Human Subjects: Assurance Identification/IRB
Likely Respondents: Research institutions engaged in HHS-conducted or -supported research involving human subjects. Institutional use of the form is also relied upon by other federal departments and agencies that have codified or follow the Federal Policy for the Protection of Human Subjects (Common Rule).
