- Not every project is Human Subject Research. That is why the HRPP created Evaluate My Project, a new non-human subject research determination tool that can be used by all researchers at UVA for both the medical and non-medical sides of the IRB. This new tool will help you to get the formal determination letter that documents IRB oversight is not needed for your project.
