What's New

• Non-Medical IRB Office Hours
  Do you have a question about whether or not you need to submit to the Non-Medical IRB? Are you having a hard time responding to an IRB comment? Do you need help navigating the IRB process?  
  
  Michael Levesque, IRB Education Specialist, will be hosting office hours for Non-Medical questions every Thursday from 12pm to 1pm on Zoom (https://researchcompliance.stanford.edu/office-hours/nonmedirb) and is available to help you with your questions.
  
  If you would like to schedule a meeting outside of IRB office hours, feel free to e-mail Michael directly at michael.levesque@stanford.edu. The irbnonmed@stanford.edu can also be used for general questions.
