UVA’s Institutional Review Board for Health Sciences Research (IRB-HSR) is comprised of health care professionals and members of the local community. The purpose of this committee is to monitor the safety and protect the rights of human research subjects – or participants in research. The Committee continually reviews clinical trials developments and activities, and risks and benefits. If you have concerns about how research is being conducted, contact the IRB-HSR office.
