The Institute for Clinical and Translation Research (ICTR) operates two Scientific Review Committees (SRC) that assess the scientific merit of investigator-initiated, non-exempt human subjects research that has not already undergone peer review by another entity.
Institutional Review Board (IRB) staff determine which initial protocol applications require SRC assessment during the ARROW intake process. In general, exempt, ceded, reading center, and emergency use applications are not subject to SRC review Additional detail can be found within IRB guidance documents noted to the right.
Note: Oncology research is reviewed separately by the UW Carbone Cancer Center Protocol Review and Monitoring Committee.
