Re: IRB Membership Jackie Givens 13 Nov 2003 08:50 EST

Alex . . .I am a non-voting member of the IRB.  I also serve as the educational liaison . . . keeping IRB members apprised of new regulations and seeing that the required training is accomplished.  Additionally, I arrange for speakers, training sessions periodically.  I assumed this role two years ago when, at my initiative, we took a closer look at IRB activities and compliance within the university.  This happened as a result of my attendance at conference sessions highlighting IRB issues at colleges and universities that resulted from faculty involvement in grant activities requiring IRB approval.

Good Morning,

I am interested in knowing how many Sponsored Programs / Grants personnel are involved in their institutions' Institutional Review Board.

Does your Sponsored Programs/Grants office administratively run the IRB?

Is a representative of the Sponsored Programs/Grants a member of the IRB?

Does a representative of the Sponsored Programs/Grants sit in on the meetings for informational purposes?

Does your Sponsored Programs/Grants office have no involvement with the IRB?

In our institution, I am not a member of the IRB, but attend meetings and provide information on related clinical trial agreements as needed.

I look forward to your responses.

Thank you,

Alex
