In addition to the IRBs, a Joint Institutional Review Board (JIRB) was created ten years ago by the DOH Bureau of Pharmaceutical Affairs in coordination with the five Academic Medical Centers of National Taiwan University Hospital, Taipei Veterans General Hospital, the Tri-Service General Hospital, Chang Gung Memorial Hospital and National Cheng Kung University.
除了各大醫院的 IRB 外，由衛生署藥政處協調台大、北榮、三總、長庚、成大等 5 大醫學中心所組成的「聯合人體試驗委員會」(JIRB) 也已成立 10 年。
