A New Tool for Laypeople Serving on Institutional Review Boards

September 30, 2011

The New HIV Vaccine and Microbicide Advocacy Society (NHVMAS), a partner in AVAC’s work on Good participatory practice for biomedical prevention research, recently published two new training manuals: one for training laypersons serving on ethics committees on how to read and give feedback on protocols, and one on the basics of research ethics. The training manuals and a PowerPoint presentation for training laypersons serving on ethics committees are available for download here. If you have trouble downloading the files or require printed copies, contact us at avac@avac.org.
