Series: Ask the IRB & IBC Experts
WCG’s IRB & IBC Review professionals get questions about clinical research all the time: from researchers, clinical team members at biopharma companies, and from members of institutional IRBs. We know that for many of the questions, the person asking is not the only one struggling with that issue. We’ve built this forum as an immediate and less formal way to share information across the clinical research community.
