In principle, when conducting “clinical research involving human subjects,” it is necessary to explain the research to participants in writing or verbally and obtain their direct consent. However, according to the “Ethical Guidelines for Medical Research Involving Human Subjects” established by the national government, for research that involves no invasion or intervention and uses only information from medical records, it is not required to obtain direct consent from participants; however, it is required to disclose the research objectives and content and to ensure that participants have the opportunity to opt out. This is called “opt-out.”
In accordance with this policy, you can find the list of “clinical research involving human subjects” currently conducted by the Campus Life and Health Support Center from the research list below. The research disclosure section provides detailed information on each research project, along with the contact information of the principal investigator.
When conducting each research project, measures are taken to anonymize data so that individuals cannot be identified. However, if you or your proxy do not wish to have your medical information used in research, or if you would like to know more about the research content, please contact the principal investigator of each study.
