IRB committee meetings are usually held on the first Monday of the month. The IRB Chair calls for a full committee meeting only if a study requires full IRB review. The IRB does not conduct full committee meetings to review studies that could qualify for an Expedited Review (always minimal risk) or an Exemption (always minimal risk).
Researchers may request the type of review they wish to file, however it is the discretion of the IRB as to the type of review that is most applicable to the research study.
