IRB Interactive: What Is an Institutional Review Board (IRB) and How Does It Work?

The purpose of the Institutional Review Board (IRB) is to review research proposals involving human participants and to ensure that proper precautions are taken to ensure the safety and rights of participants. The review is intended to emphasize the important role of ethics in conducting research as well as to protect the participants, researcher, advisor, and the University against potential risks and liabilities.

Recall the NIH materials from your previous course and complete this interactive presentation in preparation for this week’s discussion prompt.
