IBC Meeting Schedule

Protocols reviewed by the EHS Biological Safety Review (BSR)

Protocols may be eligible for EHS Bio Safety Review. The EHS Bio Safety Review can review the following IBC permits:

  • NIH Guidelines exempt research includes research that falls under section III-F of the NIH Guidelines,
  • Teaching activities that involve rDNA or synthetic nucleic acid molecules, regardless of biosafety level, or     
  • Any research or teaching activities that involve Biosafety Level 1 biological materials.    

Protocols reviewed by Full Committee

Full Committee Reviews generally occur on the third Friday of the month. However, scheduled meetings may be moved or rescheduled. The agenda closes on the Wednesday of the week prior to the meeting (agenda closes date) to give members enough time to review the submission prior to the meeting.  Submissions will not be added to the meeting’s agenda after the agenda closes date.

To avoid delays in the review process, ensure you submit a complete application.

Meeting Attendance

IBC meetings are open to the public. Individuals who wish to attend can email ibc@tamucc.edu for meeting details.
