The document discusses changes being implemented at the Human Subjects Division (HSD) of iSTAR to improve processes. Key areas of focus include maximizing regulatory flexibility to reduce unnecessary IRB reviews, publishing turnaround times for different types of IRB reviews for increased transparency and accountability, and reducing turnaround times for IRB application reviews to allow for faster research startup. Examples provided demonstrate progress made in certain areas like exempting public data sets from review, with continued efforts planned on other initiatives over the next year and beyond.
