Ethics Issues Sample Clauses

Ethics Issues. The NewProt project positively contributes to a series of ethically desirable topics. The use of (bio)informatics in the design of mutation experiments will reduce the number of experiments needed to achieve the scientific goals. This obviously contributes to the European competitiveness, in the context of ethical considerations it must be noted that a reduction in the number of experiments will also lead to reduces environmental stress, and in some cases also to a reduction in the use of test animals. The experimental partners (EMAUG, ENZYM, INGEN) use only genetically engineered microorganisms such as yeast or bacteria at the S1 level (GRAS status, risk group 1). The laboratories used fulfil the national requirements for experimental work at the S1 level. Hence, all work carried out under NewProt will be free of any ethical issues.

Ethics Issues. All human research currently performed by our research groups has been reviewed by the respective ethical committees. By default, all data collection proposed in WPS1-3 (research WPs) will be performed at Xxxxxxx University (UPJS) which has a currently approved research protocol for behavioural data collection as well as for EEG imaging studies (see copies of approvals below). The raw subject data will be analysed only at Xxxxxxx University. Only summary data plots from which no individual data can be extracted will be used for consultations and collaboration on the research with the partners. If a decision is made in the future that additional data collection needs to happen at one of the other institutions, or if additional research would be planned, not covered by the currently approved protocol, the experiments will be performed only upon approval of the procedures and the informed consent forms by the Ethical Committee / Institutional Review Board of the Xxxxxxx University, Austrian Academy of Science, University of California at Riverside, Boston University, Massachusetts General Hospital or Oregon Health and Science University. Again, such data will then not travel between countries in any raw form, as only summary statistics and plots will be shared with the other collaborators for the collaboration purposes. For illustration purposes, the currently approved research protocol documents (ethical committee approvals, informed consent forms, subject recruitment flyers) from UCR, OHSU (via Portland VA) and BU are uploaded in SyGMa. Also, if any raw data are to be exchanged among the collaborating institutions, a data sharing agreement between the organizations will be prepared to assure that national and international data and personal privacy protection standards are implemented (a sample currently existing data sharing agreement between UPJS and MGH is uploaded in SyGMa). The work proposed in WP4 (brain training game) within this grant does not involve human subjects, as the only activity proposed here is software development for one of the components of the brain training game that OHSU and UCR are developing independently, and so no human subject testing will be performed within this grant. Our subjects will be adult listeners capable of giving informed consent. The project plan does not require to work with children or vulnerable adults. Both genders will be tested unbiased. The majority of participants will be recruited through fliers placed thro...
