Institutional Review Boards

The National Institutes of Health has thirteen Institutional Review Boards, or IRBs, that review intramural protocols. A representative of the Department of Bioethics sits as a voting member on each of the intramural IRBs. These representatives include members of the staff of the department as well as others from the NIH or local community who have experience or training in the ethics of human subjects research. The department organizes a meeting of the group of IRB representatives every other month for continuing education purposes and to discuss relevant issues or policy concerns. For more information on IRBs, see the Guidebook.
