NOTE: There are no deadlines for IRB agendas. Submissions are placed on an agenda based on a combination of:
-date received,
-type of research / investigational product,
-risk,
-expertise needed for review,
-and space available on the agenda.
Generally, it is the goal of the IRB to assign submissions to agendas approximately 2 weeks to 30 days in advance of a meeting date.
If you wish to attend and observe an IRB meeting you must contact the IRB staff to schedule in advance of the IRB meeting.
