The HRPP Toolkit is updated every six months (interim changes are also made for critical issues). These updates are made following feedback collected from researchers, HRPP staff, and in response to regulatory changes.

At the end of July, updates to various toolkit documents were published. As always, tracked versions of documents that underwent revision are stored in the HRPP Toolkit Archive (June 2024 archive folder can be found here). Most notably during this round of revisions are changes to HRP-502 – TEMPLATE CONSENT DOCUMENT. A lot of work was done to reorganize and simplify the data sharing sections of the consent template.
