A few months ago I asked about IRB fees,a nd got a fes answers (different
gorup).  I've misplaced my results, so this is from memory:
Many were interested; a few were actually charging; $500 and $1000 were
mentioned as fees (I think these reflected size of project); only
commercial/industrial sponsors were were charged.
At present, VCU has elected NOT to follow my suggestion that we do make this
charge.
