Designed to give Institutional Review Board (IRB) members the information they need to protect the rights and welfare of research subjects in a way that is both effective and efficient, the chapters of the Institutional Review Board Member Handbook are short and to the point. Topic-specific chapters list the criteria IRB members should use to determine how to vote on specific kinds of studies and offer practical advice on what IRB members should do before and during full-committee meetings. This handbook is an excellent accompaniment to Institutional Review Board: Management and Function, Second Edition and the Study Guide that IRB members can access and refer to quickly and easily.
