The IRB determined that the proposed activity is not research involving human subjects

only to the activities described in the IRB submission and may not apply should any
changes be made. If the nature or scope of the activity changes and there are questions
about whether the revised activities constitute human subjects research, you should
contact the IRB to discuss whether a new submission and determination is necessary.
Sincerely,
The RTI Office of Research Protection
