Additionally, the University is an agency of the state of Texas, and therefore all agreements entered into by the University are subject to public disclosure under theTexas Public Information Act.

Publication

Timely publication and dissemination of the results of research performed by faculty are important principles behind UTHealth’s mission as an academic medical institution.

Subject Injury

在大多数情况下,如果研究参与者因参与研究而受到任何伤害或不良事件,则大学将安排受试者的照顾。对于行业发起的临床试验,大学政策专门禁止计费研究主题或第三方治疗此类伤害的费用。因此,直接由研究药物或设备给药beplay苹果手机能用吗造成的所有与研究相关的受试者伤害,或者根据赞助商设计的方案进行的程序是赞助商的财务义务。

Insurance

To support the indemnification detailed in this section, including subject injury liabilities, the sponsor must maintain a sufficient level of insurance. The University is self-insured and during the term of the agreement will maintain in force adequate insurance to cover its indemnification obligations.

The University is a constitutional corporation of the State of Texas and contracts accepted by the University also will be interpreted under Texas law.

Such schedules usually provide for regular payments upon the completion of milestones (e.g., enrollment of a certain percentage of subjects, submission of a certain number of case report forms, etc.). These payments should include all applicable indirect costs.
