Reporting a Research Safety Concern?
|
If you feel that any investigator or study personnel have performed research in a way that is noncompliant with VA Safety policies, you should file a report (containing as much specific factual information as possible--what, when, where, by who?) with either your supervisor or the Research Compliance Officer. To report to the Research Compliance Officer, send a written statement to the Research Compliance Officer, Mail stop 151. Confidentiality will be maintained to the greatest extent possible. A report may also be filed anonymously.
