New Guidance on Stop Work Orders, Suspension of Work, or Funding Terminations

OHRE has published new guidance on handling Stop Work Orders, Suspension of Work, or Funding Terminations.

Read the guidance in full on our SOPs and Guidance page.

The Office of Human Research Ethics (OHRE) is responsible for ethical and regulatory oversight of research at UNC-Chapel Hill that involves human subjects. The OHRE administers, supports, and guides the work of the Institutional Review Boards (IRBs) and all related activities. Any research involving human subjects proposed by faculty, staff, or students must be reviewed and approved by an IRB before research may begin, and before related grants may be funded.
