Administrative Review
Please review the material carefully and if there are any questions, please refer to the Regulatory Affairs page.
In addition to the types of review listed above, the Institutional Review Board (IRB) may provide administrative reviews when appropriate. Administrative reviews are used in cases in which the University of Delaware needs record of research with human subjects in which UD is engaged, but for which review and approval are not issued by the UD IRB. This is the case, for example, when UD investigators are part of a research team performing research at another institution. Depending on the nature of the research and the collaboration arrangement, UD IRB may rely on the review and approval from the other institution’s IRB. UD keeps record of that reliance via an administrative review.
All UD investigators involved in collaborative research with human subjects must consult with UD IRB and submit that proposed effort to the UD IRB regardless of other IRB reviews sought after.
