From understanding the fundamental principles guiding IRB decision-making to practical insights on protocol submission and compliance, participants will gain valuable knowledge on navigating the IRB process. We'll delve into the types of research projects requiring IRB approval, the nuances of different review categories, and the importance of ethical considerations in safeguarding human subjects. Additionally, we'll discuss common challenges, recent updates in regulations, and available resources to aid students in successfully navigating the IRB landscape. Whether you're new to research ethics or seeking to enhance your understanding of IRB protocols, this session offers essential guidance for researchers at all levels.

"I am currently working with Dr. Doug Rohrer (PI) on an Institute of Education Sciences (IES) Goal Three Efficacy grant that involves evaluating an intervention (Interleaved Mathematics Practice) designed to improve mathematics achievement of middle school students. A multisite cluster randomized control trial is being used in the evaluation.

I am also working on an Institute of Education Sciences (IES) Goal Two Development grant with Drs. Shannon Suldo (PI) and Elizabeth Shaunessy-Dedrick (Co-PI) that involves creating an intervention designed to help high school students cope with the stress associated with participation in Advanced Placement classes and the International Baccalaureate Program. The intervention is being developed using an iterative, design-based research approach and is being evaluated with a cluster randomized control trial. Student outcomes include educational achievement and mental health outcomes." Dr. Robert
