NHGRI Institutional Review BoardOverviewThe National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) Institutional Review Board (IRB) is responsible for protecting the rights and welfare of the human subjects of research conducted by intramural investigators at NHGRI. All intramural research protocols involving human subjects must be submitted for review by the NHGRI IRB. These Web pages contain the instructions, forms and relevant links for submitting a research protocol to the IRB. IRB News and UpdatesNOTE: Effective immediately, investigators must complete and submit a Designation of Reimbursement for Travel and Subsistence (DRTS) Form (NIH-2868) along with initial and continuing review applications to the IRB. This is in response to a new NIH policy (M08-1) regarding reimbursement of travel and subsistence expenses for participants in intramural research protocols. Please note that the "Points to Consider" area located at the top of the DRTS form must be filled out even when reimbursement is not being provided. Also, all new and actively recruiting protocol consent documents must include the following statement: "Reimbursement for travel and subsistence will be offered consistent with NIH guidelines." January 30, 2009 Investigators submitting new on-site protocols for initial IRB review are required to complete and submit a Clinical Center Resource Assessment Tool form . This form should be submitted to the NHGRI IRB office as soon as possible after the completion of the scientific review, no later than the due date for the submission of the entire IRB packet for review. A Protocol Resource Pilot flow chart is available that further describes this review process.
