91ÁÔÆæ

Institutional Review Board (IRB)

The 91ÁÔÆæ Institutional Review Boards (IRBs) review research projects that involve human subjects to protect their rights and welfare. Therefore, it is the policy of 91ÁÔÆæ that all research conducted by any 91ÁÔÆæ faculty member, staff member, or student using human subjects must have prior approval from a 91ÁÔÆæ IRB before the research is initiated.

Human subjects research at 91ÁÔÆæ is governed by 91ÁÔÆæ’s Federalwide Assurance, , and IRB Procedures (updated September 2022).

Updated Initial Application

We have made several changes to the Initial Submission application. These changes were made with feedback from our IRB members and the 91ÁÔÆæ research community to help facilitate the submission and review processes.

*Note: All applications created before the implementation of the new form will remain in the old template.
