With the theme “Collaborating for Progress: Promoting Safe and Efficient Research”, this conference aims to provide IRB members, IRB administrators, researchers and clinical research professionals with a training platform to share knowledge and best practices in research ethics and integrity, human subject protection and regulations for human subject research. It will also explore the ways in which IRBs and other research oversight systems can ensure adequate protections for subjects, balancing the needs of efficient administration with the requirement to ensure research is conducted responsibly and with integrity.
