6.  For the NIH training regarding human subjects, go to http://phrp.nihtraining.com/.  You will need to  

     register for the NIH Training on the use of human subjects in research and complete all of the modules.     

     When you have completed the training, you will be awarded a NIH Training Certificate of completion.    

     Save this certificate and upload to this assignment after the reference list.  This training should take 2–  

     2.5 hours to complete. If you have taken this training within the past year, you may submit that
