We are pleased to comment on the Notice of Proposed Rule Making (NPRM) revisions to the Common Rule (HHS-OPHS-2015-008). Overall, we are very pleased with the proposed revisions to the NPRM. We found the proposal responsive to the concerns our organizations raised in our October 26, 2011 letter, responding to the Advanced Notice of Proposed Rule Marking (ANPRM) concerning the “Human Subjects Research Protections: Enhancing Protections for Research Subjects and Reducing Burden, Delay, and Ambiguity for Investigators.” Further, we found the revisions responsive to the National Research Council Report on the ANPRM from the perspective of the behavioral and social sciences.#GPAC2016#LettersandComments#Data
