This is because of the longstanding and intertwined relationship between PHSKC and 天美影院public health researchers, and because PHSKC is often engaged in public health research led by UW. 天美影院led research is that which is led by a PI whose primary appointment is UW, for which 天美影院is the direct awardee of funding, or in which 天美影院has the primary role in designing and\/or conducting the research.<\/p>\n<p>The 天美影院IRB does not provide IRB review for PHSKC research in which 天美影院is not engaged or for PHSKC led research in which 天美影院does not have a leadership role. PHSKC researchers should work with the PHSKC Research Administrative Review Committee (RARC) to identify an appropriate IRB for those situations.<\/p>\n<h3>What is a part of PHSKC for this agreement:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>This agreement applies to all of PHSKC\u2019s clinical service centers, homeless programs, childcare and early learning services, children\u2019s health services, public health authority services, emergency medical services (King County Medic One), and King County Correctional Facility (KCCF) &amp; Maleng Regional Justice Center (MRJC) health services. For questions about whether an entity is part of PHSKC, contact hsdrely@uw.edu.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>What is not a part of PHSKC:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Washington State Department of Health (DOH) is often confused with PHSKC, however it is a state agency.

This application must be signed by the PHSKC RARC to document their awareness of the research.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>After 天美影院IRB approval for PHSKC has been obtained, you are responsible for:\n<ul>\n<li>Informing oversight offices at PHSKC of UW\u2019s approval.<\/li>\n<li>Informing PHSKC investigators about any conditions of the IRB approval.<\/li>\n<li>Informing PHSKC investigators about their obligation to comply with 天美影院IRB reporting requirements about noncompliance, complaints, problems, etc., although such reports must be submitted by you to the 天美影院IRB.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>PHSKC investigators remain responsible for obtaining any applicable ancillary reviews from PHSKC.
