I received this note from Sam Snyder, IRB co-chair, and thought it might be of considerable interest to CHASS as well. Please share with your colleagues. As co-chair of the IRB, I can endorse and echo what Sam says in this note.

Subject: ANNOUNCEMENT: IRB coming to CED (Poe Hall)
Hello, all. I am pleased to announce that Deb Paxton, NC State Regulatory Compliance Administrator and the force behind the NCSU IRB has agreed to hold weekly office hours in Poe Hall. Deb will be in Poe 530 each Monday from 1:00 - 4:00 (that's PM) on those weeks when class is in session. She welcomes drop-by visits. If she is working on a protocol with you, she may suggest a meeting during that time, as well.
One of the highlights of my (now nearly one year) tenure as co-chair of the NC State IRB has been the opportunity to work with and to learn from Deb. She is an invaluable resource and I urge you to take advantage of this chance to receive feedback and recommendations. Trust me, it will make the review of your protocol go much more smoothly.
