FWA Background</h3> <p>The FWA system requires each legally separate entity that <a href="http://www.hhs.gov/ohrp/policy/engage08.html" target="_self">engages</a> in federally-supported human subject research to obtain their own FWA. For example, if UCSF has a prime grant from a federal funder and part of the human subject work is a subcontract to an outside institution (including foreign institutions), the subcontractor must obtain an FWA number before the money can be awarded to that subcontractor.</p> <h3>C. UCSF Affiliates</h3> <p>The following organizations are either formally affiliated with UCSF or have a close collaborative relationship with UCSF. As such they have designated the UCSF IRB(s) as their IRB(s) of record for most or all of their human subjects research:</p> <table> <tbody> <tr> <td><strong>Affiliated Institution</strong></td> <td><strong>FWA #</strong></td> </tr> <tr> <td><a href="https://www.vitalant.org/" target="_self">Vitalant</a>聽(formerly聽Blood Centers of the Pacific (BCP))</td> <td>00002111</td> </tr> <tr> <td><a href="https://research.vitalant.org/Home.aspx">Vitalant聽Research Institute</a> (formerly Blood Systems Research Institute (BSRI))</td> <td>00006454</td> </tr> <tr> <td><a href="http://www.ioaging.org/" target="_self">Goldman Institute on Aging</a></td> <td>00002525</td> </tr> <tr> <td><a href="http://www.gladstone.ucsf.edu/gladstone/site/gweb1/" target="_self">J.
