Are universities legally liable for research that doesn’t go through IRB? It seems at least in principle possible to have a system that’s taken seriously without needing or at least primarily relying on the full force of the law.
(I agree that mandatory insurance for GCB outcomes has a lot of theoretical appeal and do not seem clearly infeasible)
I’m not sure about legal liability issues for university research, with or without IRB approval. (I’m not at all a legal expert, just a concerned faculty member.)
