## Abstract

ABSTRACT: HUMAN SUBJECTS RESEARCH CORE (CORE C)
Participation of human subjects is essential to Projects 2 and 3 of this Program Project grant,
and involves extensive recruitment procedures, initial intake assessment of participants on
numerous behavioral measures, and compliance with university, state, and federal regulations
concerning the use of human subjects in research. This Core will function to streamline and
unify these activities for multiple projects, with the overall objective of efficiently recruiting a
large number of participants for Project 1 and Project 2 experiments who meet eligibility
requirements. In addition, this Core will oversee the development and maintenance of a human
subjects database, which will be HIPAA compliant and accessible to all investigators in the
project. The four specific aims are: 1) Increase efficiency with which human subjects are
recruited to the subprojects, including minority recruitment; 2) Ensure compliance with all issues
surrounding the participation of human subjects in research; 3) Assist investigators in initial
intake assessment of participants and maintain database of assessment measures on secure
server; and 4) Assist investigators in scheduling participants for psychoacoustic, evoked
potentials, and imaging studies. The Core is envisioned as a mechanism to support numerous
human subjects activities on multiple projects, and thereby enable investigators to channel their
time and effort into the scientific experiments that constitute this Program Project Grant. As a
result, this Core will increase both productivity and the pace of research for the projects that
involve humans as subjects.
