What this means for you
The last day to submit paper applications, modifications (amendments), deviation reports and closure reports is October 8, 2020 at 5:00 pm. Our office will ensure that protocol submissions and updates are incorporated into a Kuali protocol record.
From October 8, 2020 5:01 pm until October 18, 2020 at 8:00 am, the ORPC will be closed. No paper IRB related submissions or actions will be accepted to allow for Kuali IRB data migration. Investigators are asked to review their planned start dates of new protocols or modifications to incorporate the office closure.
Starting October 18, 2020 at 8:01 am, the Kuali Protocols for IRB system will be available for IRB submissions and other related actions for legacy and new protocols.
