{Reporting Forms} {Committee Members} {Resource Links}
When a study presents greater than minimal risk to its subjects, includes any activities that fall outside the Federally-defined categories for exemption and expedited review, or involves prisoners as subjects, full review is required. Full reviews must be conducted by the full IRB committee at a convened meeting with a quorum of voting members and at least one non-scientist voting member present. In addition, if the study involves prisoners, a prisoner or a prisoner representative with appropriate background and experience to serve in that capacity must also be present and have voting rights for the review of the study.
