The IRB process can feel intimidating, confusing, and filled with endless revisions—but it doesn’t have to derail your dissertation journey. In this episode of Dissertation Deconstructed, Dr. Nixon breaks down how to successfully prepare for IRB review, avoid common mistakes, and navigate revisions with confidence. Learn the essential dos and don’ts of the IRB application process, why working closely with your dissertation chair matters, and why conducting research before approval can seriously delay your progress.

Drawing from experience chairing over 50 doctoral committees, this episode also shares real insight, encouragement, and practical strategies to help doctoral students move through the process with clarity and confidence. Plus, a heartfelt reflection on recently watching five students earn their doctorates—and the joy of calling them “Doctor” for the very first time.
