Institutional Review Board (IRB)

PLEASE NOTE:  Tina Wright will be out of the office beginning Thursday, May 26th and will return on Monday, June 13th.  For assistance with IRBs, please contact Mary Marshall at mamarshall@valdosta.edu.

The IRB's purpose is to regulate all research activities involving human subjects, ensuring that people who participate in research are treated ethically and in compliance with all federal and state laws and regulations. Before research begins, please take some time to familiarize yourself with the background, training, and policies & procedures necessary for conducting research with human subjects. A more complete list of requirements for researchers can be found on the website for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
