Protocols may be submitted at any time. Exempt and Expedited protocols will be reviewed on a rolling basis; investigators can expect to hear a response from the IRB Office within two weeks of the submission date. Protocols that require full board review will be reviewed at a monthly meeting.

To make the agenda for a month’s meeting, the protocol must be received by that month’s submission deadline. See meeting dates and submission deadlines below.

Protocols are due on Monday by 4:30 p.m.
