MBL uses an external IRB committee called New England Independent Review Board (NEIRB). NEIRB provides human subject protocol review twice weekly (Tuesday and Thursdays). Protocols submitted by Wednesday 12:00 Noon (EST) are reviewed the following Tuesday. Protocols submitted by Friday 12:00 Noon (EST) are reviewed the following Thursday. From the NEIRB website select “Submit a New Study” to begin the process.  

For further information, contact NEIRB.
