Human Subjects Office (HSO) and Institutional Review Board (IRB) leadership have been working on a major update to the HawkIRB system for projects that qualify for Exempt Status. The revised Common Rule that took effect in 2019 included significant revisions to the categories of exempt research. These revisions to the HawkIRB application will allow UI researchers and the IRB to take full advantage of these exemptions to the federal regulations for human subjects research.

This presentation will:

• Review the exempt categories of research
• Provide a high-level overview of the changes in HawkIRB
• Highlight resources available for UI researchers

 

Fall 2021 IRB presentations will be hybrid. You may attend in person or by Zoom. HSO staff will follow UI policy and CDC guidelines for wearing masks and other safety precautions. We ask attendees to do the same.

NOTE: IRB Presentations may be changed to virtual-only on short notice. We will notify everyone who is registered. Check this page for any updates.

 

Pre-registration is recommended.
