We plan to hold a training session for new IRB reviewers and current reviewers seeking a refresher the afternoon of Tuesday, April 30. That’s a fifth Tuesday, so there’s no regular IRB meeting that day. We will cover the basics of IRB reviewing and walk through the use of CLARA from the reviewer’s perspective. This session will be helpful both for people new to the board and any current reviewers wanting to brush up on the criteria for approval and how to make sure they are met.
We will meet at 2pm in our regular meeting room Biomed ONE, Room 205/207. Please let us know if you’d be interested in attending by emailing paalediths@uams.edu and killebrewpamela@uams.edu. We need to have a certain critical mass of attendees to be able to hold this session, so we do ask that you RSVP. We also hope to have some additional, possibly online, education options available soon, so no worries if you can’t make it on the 30th.
Note: if you’ve attended a previous training, you don’t have to come to this one, as we’ll be covering the same material as last time.
