IRB Compliance
Is the process for collecting this physiological data compliant with IRB standards? Ensure that the company and device you choose are secure and compliant.
One of the most important aspects of any study - especially one collecting personal physiological data- is the privacy and security of that process.
Some important questions to consider are:
- Have I ensured the data collection process is fully secure and anonymized?
- Where will my data be stored throughout, as well as after, my study?
- Who will own the data? Will the tech company have any access to the data?
A good way to check if a tool is IRB compliant is to research other published studies that have used the platform or device.
Additionally, most organizations that work with health researchers (such as Labfront) will have documentation they can provide to help support you with your application process, so don’t be shy to reach out to the institution in question to learn more!
