III. Updates from the Office of Research and Sponsored Programs Administration (ORSPA)

a. Emily Born, Compliance Officer (IRB Analyst)

We have had several submissions in Cayuse lately and most are student projects. There were some routing issues in Cayuse, but they have been corrected. I pulled CITI training for everyone on the committee, there are a few who need update their training.

Lately, we have received some Data Use Agreements from other institutions. If the other institution are sharing data with Lamar and our students, the sharing institution wants to be sure we are not sharing that information with anyone else, nor are we going to do anything with that data. There is a document that needs to be completed and signed by Jerry. If you receive anything requesting such, please forward on to me.

b. Beverly Kemp, Research Coordinator

We did have some issues with routing in Cayuse and it seemed to only affect the College of Education, within the department of Educational Leadership. The issue had to do with the bulk load of new students, but it has been corrected.

 

IV. List of Approved Expedited Studies

Beverly Kemp: For FY21 we have had 6 expedited studies.

 

V. Request from Dean Terrebonne, Chief of Staff, to identify progress made toward meeting IRB goal

a. Post minutes on Committees and Councils webpage by April 23, 2021

Beverly Kemp: All approved minutes have been posted to the University Councils and Committees webpage.

Eileen Curl: Because of the request from Dean Terrebonne, I am asking Beverly to post the minutes from today’s meeting on the website as well.

b. Statistics for the academic year:

  1. IRB meetings: 3 (October 2020, Feb & April 2021)
  2. Full board reviews: Zero
  3. Expedited reviews: 6
  4. Exempt studies: 110

 

VI. CITI Certification for faculty members sponsoring students’ research

Eileen Curl: Just a reminder that all faculty members need to complete CITI training even if they have completed training in the past. CITI training has a limitation of 3 years. Guidelines, software, and training have changed over the years and we want everyone to stay current with human subjects training.

 

VII. Full Board Review of IRB Application

None submitted

 

VIII. CITI Certification for Board Members

  1. Reminder: Board Members need to complete the CITI IRB Members Course to satisfy the requirements for the SBE and BioMed courses.

 

IX. Update from the Chair

Eileen Curl: This is my last meeting to chair. I am retiring at the end of the school year. I will hand off to you Alan for the July meeting.

Alan Moore: I was going to ask when we were going to transition for IRB chairs. Would it be possible for us to meet to discuss item related to being the chair of this committee?

Eileen Curl: Yes, we can. I want to thank our community member Jess Liao. I know it is hard to come into these meetings sometimes, but I appreciate your willingness to serve on this committee.

Jess Liao: Thank you. Congratulations on your retirement.

Emily Born: Thank you Dr. Curl for your leadership and direction to this committee. We appreciate the time you have put toward the IRB and you will be missed.
