Research With Carle

bluesolid

Because Carle Health and UIUC have a close relationship, research collaborations involving both are common. Carle has its own IRB and Human Subjects Protection Program similar to the UIUC IRB and OPRS.

Working Together to Streamline the IRB Review Process: Carle and OPRS

Carle HSPP and OPRS work together to streamline the IRB review process. If both Carle and UIUC are engaged in the conduct of human subject research, each entity is required to track and document certain parts of each project; however, often the IRB review aspect can be completed through a single IRB review process. 

OPRS and Carle HSPP work together to determine the appropriate IRB to conduct the IRB review. Considerations include the research’s location, the researchers involved, how participants are being recruited, and medical record access requirements.  

The lead PI can reach out to either IRB to discuss the project and begin the consideration process for which IRB will review the study. The ancillary review process and other departments that must review the application outside of the IRB differ at each institution and some reviews may be required regardless of the IRB used. This means that some type of application is required at each institution if the institution is engaged in research.
