IRB = Institutional Review Board: In this speech refers to the UAMS IRB. The UAMS IRB is the IRB of record for UAMS as well as ACH/ACHRI. The Institutional Review Board of the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences comprises four separate committees of healthcare providers from a variety of disciplines and lay representatives from the at-large community. The IRB has the authority to approve, disapprove, or require modifications of research activities that fall within its jurisdiction. In addition, the IRB may work in conjunction with other university or institutional committees; however, it reviews research projects independently based upon the principle that human participants will be adequately protected. www.uams.edu/irb/irb.asp |
