Ohio Administrative Code › Title 3361:10 - University of Cincinnati › Chapter 3361:10-17 - Conduct and Ethics › Section 3361:10-17-04 - Conduct and ethics: use of university resources

Current through all regulations passed and filed through July 1, 2024
Members of the faculty, administration, student body, volunteer
				workers, and staff are responsible for the appropriate use of university
				resources. Use of university resources in a manner inconsistent with this rule
				is a violation subject to disciplinary action.
(A) University funds: All members of the
			 university community are personally accountable for university funds over which
			 they have control. Anyone having questions about the appropriate use of
			 university funds should talk with his or her supervisor, or a university
			 official with authority regarding the use of funds.

Ohio Administrative Code › Title 3361:10 - University of Cincinnati › Chapter 3361:10-17 - Conduct and Ethics › Section 3361:10-17-06 - Conduct and ethics: tobacco and smoke free environment

Current through all regulations passed and filed through July 1, 2024
(A) Rationale
(1) Smoking is one of the largest causes of
			 illness and premature death in the United States. Research findings indicate
			 that nonsmokers who are regularly exposed to tobacco smoke are also at
			 increased risk of illness. The university recognizes
			 that smoking any substance in any form poses a public health hazard. For
			 purposes of this policy, "smoking" has the same meaning as in section
			 3794.01
									 division (A) of the
			 Revised Code, which is the inhaling, exhaling, burning, or carrying any lighted
			 cigar, cigarette, pipe, or other lighted smoking device for burning tobacco or
			 any other plant. Additionally, this prohibition includes all tobacco-derived or
			 tobacco-containing products including, but not limited to, cigarettes,
			 electronic cigarettes, vaporizing devices, cigars and cigarillos, hookah smoked
			 products, pipes, oral tobacco (e.g., spit and spitless, smokeless, chew or
			 snuff) and nasal tobacco (e.g., snus). It also includes any product intended to
			 mimic tobacco products, contain tobacco flavoring or the smoking of any other
			 substance that delivers nicotine.
(2) The university has had smoking
			 regulations in place that are stipulated by the state of Ohio and, as a matter
			 of policy, it shall be dedicated to providing a safe and
			 healthy environment. Furthermore, the university has
			 substantial commitments to health-related research, teaching and patient care.
			 Thus, the university community has a particular obligation to be sensitive to
			 health-protection issues and as a result the University
			 of Cincinnati intends to provide a  one hundred percent
			 tobacco and smoke free environment. The following policy has been
			 developed with these interests in mind and shall be applied consistently to all
			 faculty, staff, students, visitors, volunteers, contractors and patients of the
			 university of Cincinnati. Exemptions can include
			 cessation devices approved by the federal drug administration (not including
			 electronic cigarettes), nicotine replacement therapy, university-sponsored
			 research, and conduct protected by the American Indian Religious Freedom Act
			 codified under
			 42
			 U.S.C. §
											1996.

Current through all regulations passed and filed through July 1, 2024
(A) Rationale
The university of Cincinnati is committed to maintaining the
				highest ethical standards in research conducted by its faculty and staff by
				identifying potential financial conflicts of interest and taking the necessary
				actions to manage, reduce, or eliminate them.
(B) Scope
This rule applies to all university faculty and staff involved
				in designing, conducting, or reporting research as part of their university
				duties.
(C) Reporting of
			 financial interests
(1) Employees engaged in
			 research shall fully disclose all financial and other interests on an outside
			 activity reporting form "OAR" as required by rule
			 3361:30-21-01
			 of the Administrative Code and any policies issued by the president of the
			 university pursuant to that rule.
(2) Any university official or committee
			 charged with the review, approval, or oversight of research for the purpose of
			 identifying and managing conflicts of interest shall have access to the "OAR"
			 forms of university faculty and staff engaged in research to the extent
			 necessary to conduct such review, approval, or oversight.

Current through all regulations passed and filed through July 1, 2024
(A) Policy
			 statement
The board of trustees has determined that the best interests of
				the university of Cincinnati will be served if employees who create new
				technology are afforded the opportunity to hold personal financial interests in
				companies that are engaged in commercializing their inventions. Employee
				participation with outside companies in technology development activities will
				facilitate the university's goal of making its research available for use in
				the private marketplace by giving researchers an incentive to develop
				inventions with commercial applications. The opportunity to participate in
				commercialization activities is also essential to the university's efforts to
				attract and retain highly qualified researchers. The procedures and guidelines
				set forth in this rule are intended to enable the university to realize the
				benefits of such entrepreneurial activities while protecting the integrity of
				its research and educational mission and to comply with university policies and
				with applicable federal and state laws.
(B) Applicability
(1) Scope and definitions.
(a) This policy applies to any faculty, staff
			 or student employee who is the creator of a discovery or invention that is
			 owned by the university of Cincinnati through the operation of rule
			 3361:10-19-01(Patents
			 and copyrights: policy on inventions and discoveries) of the Administrative
			 Code ("inventor") and who desires to acquire an equity or other financial
			 interest ("financial interest") in a firm, corporation, or other association to
			 which the university of Cincinnati has assigned, licensed, transferred or sold
			 its interests in the discovery or invention made or created by that employee or
			 in a patent issued to that employee ("technology development
			 company").
(b) This policy deals
			 only with the acquisition by an inventor of a financial interest in a company
			 that is developing technology based on a discovery, invention or patent
			 ("intellectual property") that was created by that inventor; accordingly, the
			 term "technology development company" refers only to such a company. For
			 purposes of this policy, "inventor" includes the inventor's spouse and members
			 of his or her immediate family and any firm, corporation or other association
			 controlled by the inventor; and "financial interest" includes any stock, bond,
			 warrant, option, loan or other equity or debt interest in a technology
			 development company, or promise of the same, as well as paid consulting or
			 employment with a technology development company.

			 institutional review boards ("IRB") to review
			 research involving human subjects. The IRB reviews research involving
			 investigational drugs, biologics, devices, and medical treatments and other
			 research involving human subjects. All research to which this rule applies must
			 be reviewed and approved by a university IRB
			 before research begins.
(1) The IRB shall establish policies and
			 procedures for membership, regular meetings, review and approval of protocols
			 and consent forms, modifications to approved research, the risk/benefit ratio
			 of the research to the subjects involved, protection of the confidentiality of
			 the subjects' private information, and the reviews of approved research
			 protocols at timely intervals.

			 risk of serious harm to human subjects.
