*Expedited Review is a review by a subcommittee of HSC members, the HSC Chair or an HSC member who has been designated by the Chair to conduct such reviews. To be eligible for Expedited Review, the research must include only activities that (1) present no more than minimal risk to human subjects, and (2) fit within the expedited review categories specified by federal regulations. Eligibility for Expedited Review is determined by the HSC staff, in consultation with the HSC Chair.
