Times of global conflict may generate important research questions. It is critical that IRBs are equipped to review research that may take place during times of conflict as this research is often time sensitive and may have immediate impact for policy or relief efforts.
Learning Objectives:
Share experiences from researchers who have conducted research during times of conflict including practical strategies research teams might adopt to minimize risk to participants and study team members
Highlight best practices for IRBs, HRPPs, and researchers in planning, conducting, and reviewing global research conducted during times of conflict
Discuss opportunities to better equip these groups when time, distance and resources may present challenges
