Many of you who know of our patient registry software solution and have partnered with Global Vision Technologies on Patient Registry products such as ClinicalPURSUIT -  are familiar with the excellent services provided by Sterling IRB of Atlanta.

It is with great pleasure that we share their exceptional news today on our blog. 

Sterling Institutional Review Board has recently received full accreditation from the Association for the Accreditation of Human Research Protection Programs (AAHRPP). Accreditation signals to sponsors and investigators that Sterling IRB provides comprehensive protections for research participants.  Sponsors and investigators now have an industry-recognized assurance of Sterling’s commitment to exceed federal regulatory requirements and to continually improve quality and efficiency.

As the "gold seal," AAHRPP accreditation offers assurances—to research participants, researchers, sponsors, government regulators, and the general public—that a human research protection program is focused first and foremost on excellence not only in protecting research participants, but also in the advancement of more efficient and effective research. More information about AAHRPP accreditation is located at www.aahrpp.org and AAHRPP’s press release regarding Sterling’s accreditation is available at http://www.aahrpp.org/www.aspx?PageID=340.
