Well, the university of Minnesota managed to escape responsibility after multiple suicides and coercion of subjects of psychiatric research. From one regent: “[this] has not risen to the level of our concern”.
Wow, very interesting read (not finished yet though), thank you. To me, this seems like it should be considered as part of UNM's trustworthiness as a whole and completely validates GKH's decision (not that any was needed).
The way I've seen Harvard, Stanford, and a few other university researchers dodge IRB review is by doing research in "private" time in collaboration with a private entity.
There is no effective oversight over IRBs, so they really range quite a bit. Some are really stringent and some allow anything.
Which would suggest the IRB’s oversight is broken in that institution somehow, right?

A lot of IRBs are a joke.
