Hi!
Our IRB has 3 non-voting members, who have the analyst role (previews research applications). I am 1 of those 3, and also serve in the role of IRB Administrator/Director (manage our Human Research Protection Program).
Your other question is very interesting. However, want to ensure I'm interpreting it correctly. That is, are you
describing the review process at convened meetings (i.e., Board "ratifying" previous research materials approved via expedited review)? Or, are you asking about the procedure (i.e., the materials continue to be reviewed for risk as research is conducted within myriad contexts and different populations)?

This is one for the IRB Folks,
I am wondering if anyone has come across the idea of the Committee voting at a meeting to "ratify" protocols that have been reviewed and approved by expedited review.
Also, what are your thoughts on having "non-voting members" on the the IRB.
Thanks
