IRB Policies and Procedures
Step 1 – Does my Project Need IRB Approval?
All ¹û¶³´«Ã½Â鶹Éç individuals whose activities meet both the definition of “human subjects” and of “research” are required to submit a Human Subjects Application Form to the Institutional Review Board and obtain approval or exempt certification prior to engaging in human subjects/participants research activities. If you are unsure whether IRB approval is required for your project, contact the IRB office at irb@uidaho.edu or 208-885-6340.
