Do you have questions for the Institutional Review Board (IRB)? No matter where you are in the IRB process, a representative will be available during these office hours to answer your questions, question examples are below.

• Do I need IRB approval for my research project?
• How do I submit an IRB application?
• What qualifies as human subjects research?
• What are the common mistakes to avoid in IRB submissions?
• How do I handle informed consent and confidentiality?
• What if I’m conducting research internationally or online?
• This is a great opportunity to get personalized guidance, clarify your responsibilities, and ensure your research meets ethical standards.
