The Office for Human Research Protections (OHRP), a department within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), provides leadership in protecting the rights, welfare, and


wellbeing of research subjects involved in studies conducted or supported by HHS. OHRP accomplishes this by offering clarification and guidance on ethical and regulatory issues in biomedical


and social-behavioral research, developing educational programs and materials, and providing regulatory oversight.
