Title / Topic: Single IRB: How Hard Can It Be?

Speaker: Claire Walker, Lifespan HRPP Reliance Specialist, Brown University Health

Overview: The single IRB process is comprised of federal guidance and institution-specific procedures. Whether the local study team is identified as the lead site or a relying site, understanding the roles and responsibilities of the collaborating researchers is an essential component to ensure the protection of the rights, safety, and welfare of the study participants. Understanding the differences between standard review and single IRB review will allow the local study team to prepare for an efficient review process, incorporating a clear communication plan designed to sustain the project through completion.

Objectives:

• Overview of the purpose of single IRB review process
• Understanding of the responsibilities of the PI/Coordinator
• Understanding of benefits of a Communication Plan
