The OHRP is a program office within the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health, Office of the Secretary, HHS. OHRP provides clarification and guidance, develops educational programs and materials, maintains regulatory oversight, and provides advice on ethical and regulatory issues in biomedical and behavioral research. OHRP also supports the Secretary’s Advisory Committee on Human Research Protections (SACHRP), which advises the Secretary of Health and Human Services on issues of human subject protections. Consistent with OHRP’s mission and the applicable statutory authority, 42 U.S.C. 289, OHRP Educational Workshops aim to provide clarification and guidance to the public on how to interpret, implement, and comply with the HHS-regulations on the protection of human subjects in research. Workshops are moderate size half-day or one-day events that typically accept between 120 and 140 attendees. Co-sponsors will assist with workshop and agenda development, coordination, financial management, and meeting logistics in conjunction with OHRP staff. Co-sponsors can charge registration fees to recover costs associated with the events; however, co-sponsors may not set registration fees at an amount higher than necessary to recover related conference expenses. Further, we expect co-sponsors to be solely responsible for collecting and handling any registration fees collected. Eligibility for Co-Sponsorship: The co-sponsoring institution must have an approved Federal-wide Assurance with OHRP and be a recipient of HHS grants for human subject research. The selected co-sponsoring organization(s) shall furnish the necessary personnel, materials, services, and facilities to administer its responsibility for the workshop. These duties will be outlined in a co-sponsorship agreement with OHRP that will set forth the details of the co-sponsored activity, including the requirements that any fees collected by the co-sponsor shall be limited to the amount necessary to cover the cosponsor’s related conference expenses. Co-sponsoring institutions will be asked to sign a Co-Sponsorship Agreement with HHS.

Additionally, this agreement PO 00000 Frm 00042 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 44027 will not affect any determination concerning activities by the co-sponsors that are regulated by OHRP.
