Kurzbeschreibung: The Office for Human Research Protections (OHRP) and Duke University School of Medicine will sponsor a National Human Subject Protections Conference entitled, “Crossing the Line: What is Acceptable Risk?” on Monday, September 25 and Tuesday, September 26, 2006, at the Sheraton Imperial Hotel and Convention Center in Durham, North Carolina. Co-sponsors of the conference are the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, North Carolina State University, Family Health International, RTI International, National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, Copernicus Group IRB, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, and Department of Veterans Affairs.

This conference will focus on the concept of "acceptable risk" in the conduct of biomedical and behavioral research. Topics during this two day conference will include the risks associated with research on environmental hazards in emergency research and in psychiatric studies, including the use of placebos in study design and continuing assessment of subject competency and the effects of recent information concerning anti-depressants on the design of psychiatric studies. Breakout sessions will focus on risks particular to vulnerable populations. The faculty will include academic experts who will address key topics and issues in biomedical and behavioral research. In addition, representatives from the OHRP, U.S. Food and Drug Administration, National Institutes of Health, National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, and Department of Veterans Affairs will provide federal regulatory updates.

Topics during the conference will include a variety of learning opportunities for all those interested in the protection of human research participants and include:

• Additional risks posed in research involving vulnerable populations such as children, prisoners, and students

• The best means of communicating risk within the informed consent process

• Special considerations in genetic testing, web-based research, psychiatric studies and international research

• HRPP accreditation, use of central IRBs, and the impact of media coverage of research and clinical trials.

This conference should be of special of interest to those persons currently serving or about to begin serving as members of IRBs as well as investigators, legal counsel, patient advocates, public health officials, privacy officials, compliance officers, laypersons, sponsors and contract research professionals.
