Following a rigorous evaluation process, Wayne State University’s research program involving human participants has been renewed for full accreditation by the Association for the Accreditation of Human Research Protection Programs Inc. (AAHRPP). The accreditation is the “gold seal” for human participant research, requiring its member institutions to reach performance standards that surpass the threshold of state and federal requirements. “AAHRPP accreditation indicates Wayne’s commitment to the most comprehensive protection for human research participants and to the highest quality research. This is a great achievement for Wayne State University,” said Hilary Ratner, Ph.D., WSU’s vice president for research.
