Q. Do I need IRB approval for a case study?

A. If your case report will be for 3 or fewer cases and the data will be de-identified, it is not considered research that must be approved by the IRB. However, it will need to be internally approved by Dental Research Administration. First, please complete the case report template, and send that to Shruti Jain for her review. She will then connect you to Ann-Marie Billig for the next steps.
