Winthrop-University Hospital currently utilizes three Institutional Review Boards to ensure that all research projects involving humans conducted at Winthrop-University Hospital are performed in compliance with federal regulations. The three IRBs are Winthrop-University Hospital IRB (WUH IRB), Western IRB (WIRB) and the National Cancer Institute Pediatric Central Institutional Review Board (Peds/CIRB).

The WUH IRB reviews all other research projects including; projects eligible for exempt status, expedited status, Phase I and II clinical trials, both inpatient and outpatient pharmaceutically sponsored trials, all studies involving investigational devices, investigator initiated trials, and federally sponsored projects.
