Compliance Overview
♦ What are “compliance” activities?
♦ Why should the investigator and the university be concerned?
Institutional Review Board
What is the IRB?♦ Local body charged by Federal

♦ Basic mandate: protect human subjects♦ Authority to approve, disapprove and
require modification to all institution’s human subjects protocols
Purpose of the IRB
♦ The purpose of an IRB is to review research and to ensure the rights and welfare of human subjects involved in research are adequately protected.♦ That researchers are qualified to
conduct research involving human subjects.
♦ That subjects are fully aware of the study’s parameters and what role they (and/or their data) play.
Levels of IRB Review
• Full Board– More than minimal risk– Minimal risks studies that don’t
qualify for Expedited Review– Review both Biomedical/Social Behavioral
Research
Levels of IRB Review
