note = "Funding Information: 17 In 1974, the National Research Act (Pub. L. 93–348) created the National Commission for the Protection of Human Subjects of Biomedical and Behavioral Research [of the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS)], which issued the Belmont Report in 1978. The guidelines and statements of principle contained in the Belmont Report gradually acquired the force of law in the US in the late 1970s and early 1980s when 45 CFR 46 subparts A–D were adopted, requiring ethics review of all human subjects research funded by the US government and creating the IRB system to carry out those reviews. In 1991, 14 other federal agencies and departments joined DHHS in adopting a uniform set of rules (Subpart A of 45 CFR 46, the Common Rule) to govern research on human subjects; in 1995, an executive order required that the CIA also comply with these rules. Eventually research funded by the US government but conducted outside the US was also brought under the same body of rules.
