Transnational research collaborations increasingly include plans to share data and biospecimens across research sites. Researchers interested in sharing data and biospecimens globally must be aware of applicable data/biospecimen sharing requirements and incorporate mechanisms to address these requirements in their research plans. Likewise, IRBs must be prepared to review projects involving global data/biospecimen sharing and assist researchers in navigating applicable consent, data privacy and security and material transfer requirements.
Learning Objectives:
Provide HRPPs, IRBs, and global researchers practical tools in identifying, interpreting, and applying data/biospecimen sharing requirements in the design and review of transnational research
Share best practices for consent, data privacy and security in global research to facilitate this data/biospecimen sharing
