‘Let’s Talk Research’ monthly discussions begin Oct. 19

The inaugural “Let’s Talk Research,” a monthly virtual event that will highlight research on campus, funding resources and research-related topics, is set for Oct. 19.

Sponsored by Costas Tsatsoulis, vice chancellor of research and dean of the graduate school, the one-hour session starts at noon. Interested participants can register at https://bit.ly/3e9swiT or by email at orc@siu.edu.

Each virtual session will start with a Q&A with Tsatsoulis. The October session is IRB 101, and will provide an overview of the Institutional Review Board human subjects’ application process by IRB chair Dan Becque, an associate professor in kinesiology. Staff from SIU’s Office of Research Compliance will be available for questions.

Those attending the session will receive a certificate that may partially satisfy granting agency requirements for responsible conduct of research training. For more information, email the Office of Research Compliance at orc@siu.edu.
