University research policies regarding self-experimentation

We're waiting for Mark R. Diamond to read a recent response and update the status.

To the University.

I would be grateful if you would, if possible, deal with this request under administrative arrangements rather than invoking the cumbersome machinery of the Freedom of Information/Right to Information Act.

I am seeking a copy of any policy documents that your university has (most likely with your Human Research Ethics Committee [HREC], or similar) regarding research involving self-experimentation, by which I mean those projects or experiments in which the only participant is the researcher themselves.

I am particularly interested in (i) whether your university has an explicit policy regarding self-experimentation, and (ii) whether self-experimentation requires HREC review.

Yours faithfully,

Mark R. Diamond

Dear Mark,

 

Thank you for your enquiry.

 

The University of Wollongong Policy Directory contains all UOW policy
documents publicly available:
([1]https://documents.uow.edu.au/about/polic...).

 

We do not have a policy directly relating to self-experimentation,
however, you will find our research category publicly available here:
[2]https://documents.uow.edu.au/about/polic...

 

I hope this assists with your enquiries.

 

Kind regards,

Cassandra
