SOCIAL AND BEHAVIORAL RESEARCH EXPERTISE
Pearl IRB brings deep experience reviewing social, behavioral, educational and qualitative research. Our board understands that these studies often involve different risks, methods and participant considerations than traditional clinical trials — and that the review should fit the research.
From expedited and exempt determinations to Certificates of Confidentiality, funding requirements and protections for vulnerable populations, our team provides thoughtful, practical review that supports ethical research without forcing a clinical-trial framework where it does not belong.
