What we’ll ask you

These roles exist to protect participants even against the study's own momentum. Everyone also answers a few shared questions on research integrity and why this work. You answer these in your private portal after verifying your email — a reviewer reads them, and they’re never scored by a machine.

  • How do you think about a stopping rule? What evidence would make you halt or pause a study, and how do you protect your independence in that judgment?
  • How do you handle a sponsor, PI, or institution that resists a safety recommendation you believe is right?
  • What financial, professional, or personal ties might affect your independence in this role, and how would you manage them?
  • Tell us about your adverse-event or safety-monitoring experience, especially a case where your judgment changed a study's course. (optional)
