<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">The OHSP and IRB have always experienced a high-volume of student inquiries about FSU human research review requirements, as well as persistent issues with submitted student-led
research, which comprises more than 40% of all RAMP IRB submissions. It is well past time that we compiled specific guidance in a central location and which guidance is devoted and responsive to our large community of student researchers.
