International Research

UIS supports international research that promotes cultural exchange and global awareness, a highlight of our General Education learning goals.  Human subjects research conducted outside the United States requires investigators to consider extra factors beyond the typical research protocol.

Collaborative Research

UIS faculty and students benefit from collaborative research with other scientists.  When those scientists are at other institutions, and human research is involved, then coordinating IRB proposal submissions is necessary to proceed smoothly.
