IRB and IACUC offices are often charged with a plethora of gatekeeper functions that are outside of the regulatory charge of their committees, but within the scope of requirements to conduct research at an institution. Streamlining processes by delegating work to the appropriate ancillary offices (e.g. biosafety, EHS, conflicts of interest, data transfer) while building collaborative relationships across research administration is key to developing a successful compliance program. IRBs, IACUCs, and other compliance programs can work together to identify tools that can help inform an institution's regulatory roadmap and reduce burden for researchers and staff.
