John Hurdle is the Chair and retains final authority on IRB governance issues. Dennis O'Rourke is the Co-Chair and is responsible for addressing issues from main campus. His responsibilities are to assist with policy development for main campus IRB issues, sign protocols for social and behavioral disciplines, and serve as a liaison for main campus with the IRB. They oversee the 4 IRB panels. They work with John Stillman who is the Director of the IRB. We also now have 5 Vice Chairs, including 2 from main campus.
