Professional Geographer Focuses on IRBs

The Professional Geographer has posted a six-item special section on "Protecting Human Subjects Across the Geographic Research Process," edited by Patricia L. Price.

Do I have time to write about each of these as we enter the last stretch of the ANPRM comment period? I do not!

As a placeholder, then, I offer the table of contents:
