I oversee the operations of the HRPP office. I work with the HRPP staff, IRB committee members, and the broader UCSF research community to protect participants and initiate studies in a timely fashion.
I oversee the single IRB and reliance components of the HRPP office, and am responsible for developing updated IRB guidance as needed.
I oversee on-site compliance monitoring, investigations, post-approval events and HRPP educational activities.
I process new studies that require full committee review for the Oakland IRB Committee. I also manage the meeting agendas for that committee.
I process modifications and continuing reviews for minimal risk studies. I am only available by email.
