Research Compliance Services
•
Central administrative unit supporting research integrity
•
Support for human subjects research protections and the Institutional
Review Board
•
Support for UO policies on Financial Conflict of Interest in Research
(FCOIR), and Conflict of Interest, Conflict of Commitment, and
Outside Activities
•
Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR) resources, and support for
RCR training requirements on sponsored projects – esp. NIH and NSF
•
Support for responding to and investigating allegations of research
misconduct
Updates Fall 2020 – FCOI, COI-COC
•
No change to FCOIR requirements/process – anyone responsible for the design,
conduct or reporting of
sponsored research
must complete the SFI declaration
and complete annual FCOIR training – both through EPCS
•
Applies to subrecipients who do not have their own FCOIR policy
•
RCS is supporting UO’s Conflict of Interest, Conflict of Commitment, Outside
Activities policy, which applies to
all UO employees
– currently, disclosures are
accepted at
coc@uoregon.edu
•
Training on this policy will be recorded and made available through MyTrack this fall
•
If a proposed outside activity is with a foreign institution or abroad, RCS can help connect
person with other relevant UO offices
•
Information about foreign support should be shared with SPS to ensure active funding and
proposals are current
•
Electronic COI module for both FCOIR and COI-COC disclosures should be in place
this time next year
Updates Fall 2020 – Responsible Conduct of
Research
•
We have resumed sending emails to PIs regarding the RCR training
requirement
•
Emails intended to remind PIs of the training requirement, and inform
them we can provide support
•
Help answer questions about NIH and NSF training requirements
•
Provide a template tracking sheet
•
Guide researchers (faculty, students, post-docs) to RCR resources: RCR CITI
training; course offered on campus; RCS’s basic RCR course
•
We are not requesting the documentation of the training, but rather
only PI status update
•
PIs should maintain records of the RCR training for each award

Protections
