Develop a research proposal
This task involves creating a research proposal that outlines the objectives, methodology, and expected outcomes of the research. It is important to carefully consider the research question, study design, and feasibility. The research proposal lays the foundation for the entire project and serves as a guide throughout. Remember to include any necessary background information, citations, and potential challenges that may arise along the way.
Identify potential risks and benefits of the research
In this task, you will assess and document the potential risks and benefits associated with the research. Consider both physical and psychological risks to participants, as well as any potential benefits that may arise from the research. This information will help inform the informed consent process and ensure that participants are fully aware of the potential risks and benefits before deciding to participate.
Complete training on research ethics and regulatory compliance
This task involves completing training on research ethics and regulatory compliance. It is essential to understand the ethical considerations and legal requirements for conducting research involving human subjects. The training will provide guidance on obtaining informed consent, ensuring participant safety, and reporting adverse events or deviations from the approved protocol.

Prepare a research protocol document
In this task, you will prepare a research protocol document that outlines the specific procedures and methodologies for conducting the research. This document should include detailed information on participant recruitment and selection criteria, data collection procedures, informed consent process, and analysis plan. The research protocol serves as a roadmap for conducting the research and ensures consistency throughout the study.
Submit the research protocol to the principal investigator
Upon completion of the research protocol document, it should be submitted to the principal investigator for review and approval. The principal investigator will assess the feasibility, ethical considerations, and overall quality of the research protocol. Any revisions or modifications required will be communicated back to the researcher.
Approval: Principal Investigator

Review and revise the protocol as needed
Based on feedback from the principal investigator, the researcher should review and revise the research protocol as needed. This may involve modifying the study design, addressing ethical concerns, or clarifying procedures. It is important to ensure that the research protocol meets all necessary requirements before proceeding to the next step.
Submit the revised research protocol to IRB
Once the research protocol has been revised, it should be submitted to the Institutional Review Board (IRB) for approval. The IRB is responsible for ensuring that the research meets ethical standards and protects the rights and welfare of the participants. The IRB will assess the revised protocol and provide a decision.

Complete the informed consent document
In this task, you will complete the informed consent document. The informed consent document outlines the purpose of the research, procedures, potential risks and benefits, and participant rights. It is important to use clear, non-technical language and provide ample opportunity for participants to ask questions or seek clarification.
Submit the informed consent document to IRB for approval
Once the informed consent document has been completed, it should be submitted to the IRB for approval. The IRB will review the document to ensure that it provides adequate information for participants to make an informed decision and that it meets all ethical requirements.

Recruit and screen study participants
In this task, you will recruit and screen potential study participants. This may involve advertising the research, contacting potential participants, and conducting screening interviews or assessments. It is important to ensure that participants meet the eligibility criteria and fully understand the requirements and expectations of participating in the research.
Obtain informed consent from each participant
For each participant, you will obtain their informed consent prior to their participation in the research. This involves providing them with the informed consent document, answering any questions or concerns they may have, and obtaining their signature or agreement to participate.
Conduct the research according to the approved protocol
In this task, you will conduct the research according to the approved protocol. This involves following the specified procedures, collecting data, and ensuring participant safety and welfare throughout the study. It is important to adhere to the approved protocol to maintain the integrity and validity of the research.
Report any deviations or adverse events to the principal investigator and IRB immediately
If any deviations from the approved protocol or adverse events occur during the research, it is crucial to report them immediately to the principal investigator and IRB. This ensures that appropriate actions can be taken to address the situation and to ensure the safety and well-being of the participants.
Monitor participant safety and welfare throughout the study
Throughout the course of the study, it is important to monitor participant safety and welfare. This involves regularly checking in with participants, addressing any concerns or issues they may have, and ensuring that they are comfortable and well-informed about their participation in the research.
Summarize and analyse research data
Once all data has been collected, it needs to be summarized and analyzed. This task involves organizing and summarizing the collected data, applying appropriate statistical analysis methods, and drawing meaningful conclusions from the research findings. The data analysis should align with the research objectives and be presented in a clear and concise manner.
Submit a final report to the principal investigator and IRB
Upon completion of the data analysis, a final report should be prepared and submitted to the principal investigator and IRB. The report should summarize the research process, provide a detailed analysis of the findings, discuss any limitations or challenges encountered, and make recommendations for future research or improvements. The report serves as a record of the research and contributes to the body of knowledge in the field.
