Answer to Problem 10.9E
The review boards contain people who are not scientists for getting accurate reviews.
Explanation of Solution
Given info:
The institutional review boards of government regulations should consist of at least five people. One must be a scientist, one must be a non-scientist, and one must be outside the institution.
Justification:
For obtaining accurate and stable reviews of government regulations (about both the technical issue and non-technical issues of the institution) by the review boards, it must involve people who are not scientists.
Thus, the review boards contain people who are not scientists for getting accurate reviews.
b.
To explain: Whether one outside member is enough and explain how the member is chosen.
b.
Answer to Problem 10.9E
Yes, one outside member is enough and a medical doctor can be chosen for giving reviews.
Explanation of Solution

One outside member for the review board is enough as this member is selected virtually. Say, a medical doctor (who is not a scientist) would give the reviews that are not identified by the institution members.
Thus, one outside member is enough and a medical doctor can be chosen for giving reviews.
