SUMMARY:Single IRB (sIRB) Training
DESCRIPTION:Description: \nThis 30-minute presentation provides a high-level overview of the Single IRB process. “Single IRB” in this case refers to the process and requirements for multi-site research studies (that is\, a study on which multiple institutions are collaborating) to use a Single IRB of record. This process involves authorization agreements and a different workflow than IRB submissions where Penn State is the only engaged institution. \nThis training is geared toward first time Single IRB users; it covers when and how to use the Single IRB as well as best practices and general tips.
