IRB

At Marshall University, we take pride in the efficiency, thoroughness and professionalism of our AAHRPP-accredited local Institutional Review Board (IRB). Our local IRB prioritizes patient safety, data integrity and community trust—while maintaining a streamlined review process. Most sponsored trial protocols are approved in just over 30 days, and we frequently match or exceed the turnaround times of central IRBs.

We understand that sponsors may have varying preferences or past experiences with IRB review. That’s why we offer the flexibility to use either our local IRB or a central IRB—whichever best meets your needs.
