FWA and IRB Registrations

Federalwide Assurance (FWA) Information

​

The Federal Policy (Common Rule) for the protection of human subjects requires that each institution "engaged" in Federally supported human subject research file an Assurance with the DHHS Office of Human Research Protections (OHRP). The Assurance formalizes the institution's commitment to protect human subjects. Phronetik's Federalwide Assurance (FWA00033081) was approved in February 2023 and remains active unless otherwise notified. The FWA expiration date is revised each time Phronetik's FWA is modified.

​

To verify the current expiration date of Phronetik's FWA, go to the OHRP website and use these criteria to search the database:

​

• Document Type: Assurances (FWAs)

• FWA Number: 00033081
   

Below is a sample search result. The "Type" column verifies that Phronetik has an FWA and the "Status" column verifies it is active.  By clicking on the institution name listed in the "Institution" column, the current expiration date of the FWA can be verified. Note: the link below is inactive.
