Why is the IRB important? • Protect the rights and welfare of people involved in research • Reviews plans for research involving human subjects • Institutions that accept research funding from the federal government must have an IRB to review all research involving human subjects (even if a given research project does not involve federal funds).

  7. Types of irb review • Full Board Review: • The application will be considered by either the Biomedical (if an intervention is involved) or Social and Behavioral committee • Each committee meets once per month – so this process takes time! • Studies going to Full Board will be those that: • Focus on vulnerable population groups (children/ prisoners) • Include invasive sample collection • Pose greater than minimal risk to participants • Expedited Review: • The application will be passed to a single Designated Reviewer, who then makes a recommendation to the Chair • Studies undergoing Expedited review will be those that: • Secondary data that contains identifiers • Primary data collection from adults • Exempt Review: • IRB can determine that an application is exempt from review • Uses public access secondary data with no identifying information

  8. Consent forms • Should follow the format and include the sections recommended by the IRB • Title of project • Principal Investigator • Sponsor’s Name • Introduction/ Purpose • Procedures • Risks • Benefits • Confidentiality • Compensation • Contact Persons
