Institutional Review Board (IRB)

Human subjects research is reviewed via three methods: a convened IRB; expedited review; or exempt review. Note that the determination for exemption is made by HRPP, not the investigator, and therefore must always be submitted formally.

As a reminder, you must not conduct human subjects research without prior IRB review and approval. 

IRB Training

Electronic submission via the ERA system is required for all IRB submissions. This includes new applications for human subjects protocols, continuing reviews, Reportable New Information submissions, requests for amendments to approved human subjects research, initial (only) WIRB reviews, and study closures.
