How do I submit for review?
Find the appropriate form on the FORMS page, complete the form, and submit to the Office of Research Compliance in RTEC 117.
When should I submit?
Research proposals are routed for review in a first in/first out basis. Many studies qualify for exempt or expedited review, and thus go straight to a reviewer. Studies that are deemed to be greater than minimal risk will be reviewed in a convened meeting of one of two committees (Biomedical or Social/Behavioral). Each committee meets once per month and there is a submission deadline to be included on each month's agenda.
