请参阅 常见问题 以获得IRB职责和一般定义的总体概述.
一旦你确定你在进行人类参与研究, 请按照以下步骤完成审查过程. 请从你提交你的 完成 application, with all necessary attachments, for the review process to take place.

步骤1
All researchers must show proof of having taken a training course on research with human participants. 你可以参加网上课程 国立卫生研究院网站，或者你可以提供修过类似课程的证明.

The results will be communicated to the investigator in writing and also reported at the next IRB meeting. IRB成员可以要求讨论任何加速审查, 或者交由全体委员会审查.

以下类型的研究一般属于 免除 评审类别:

• 在已建立或普遍接受的教育环境中进行的研究, 包括正常的教育实践.
• 涉及使用教育测验的研究, 面试, 调查, 或观察, unless information is identifiable and disclosure would place participants at risk. (对儿童的调查和访谈研究也不例外.)
