Susan, We have run into one in the Worcester area. It's called New England IRB. They are at www.neirb.com. Our IRB received a materials from them in a case where a spinoff company from the local medical school had a project that was approved by them, but we required our own IRB's approval. Their local people were quite cooperative. Their main office is in Newton, but I believe we dealt with someone in Worcester. Landy ---------------------------- Landy C.

Good morning, We often get asked by small firms looking to apply for NSF funding if they could use our IRB. We are not interested in becoming a 'review shop' but would like to be able to point these organizations to other institutions that do this as their main business focus.

Has anyone executed the GRO Research Agreement? I'm concerned about terms and conditions, especially IP.

Because we are a public institution financed in part with tax-exempt bonds, there are limitations on what we can share and how for work conducted in University facilities. We did have to walk away from a funded project due to IP issues raised in the award terms and conditions. Given Samsung's apparent position, you need to decide whether or not to apply.
