The research for my Emphasis project doesn’t pose any risk to any one. Do I need to go through the entire IRB review process?
Federal law governing the protection of human subjects in research recognizes that while many investigations pose some risk to participants, others are no more risky than the normal activities of daily life. Projects in which human subjects engage in activities that pose the same or less risk than occurs in daily life are known as minimal risk studies, and are eligible for expedited review or exemption from further IRB review. Only the IRB has the authority to make this determination.
