Well, the quarter is off to a great start and our fearless leader Greg is in the field conducting some serious ethnography. While he’s gone, the rest of the SSRC staff is putting the finishing touches on a new Atlas.ti training (in addition to the SPSS and NVivo trainings we offer regularly), consulting with faculty on their research, thinking up ingenious new ways to support research at DePaul, doing some research of our own, and, as ever, keeping our ears to the ground for new and interesting research tidbits to bring you in this newsletter.
This week, we outline some proposed changes to the federal regulations governing research. Next week, we’ll get the perspective of Susan Loess-Perez in the Office of Research Protections. It seems that re-evaluating research regulations has become a trend, since the NIH also released a new conflict of interest policy worth checking out, whether you plan to do research in that area or are simply interested in the rules regarding disclosures by researchers about income from drug and medical device companies.
