All Institutional Review Board (IRB) requests for review should be submitted to irb@up.edu, according to Michele Leasor, assistant to the provost’s office. Requests should no longer be sent directly to the faculty member in your department.
This fall the IRB Committee is piloting a new deadline and response schedule. The Spring 2015 schedule will be published on www.up.edu/irb by late November. Requests for exceptions to the published schedule must be approved and forwarded by your dean. The deadline for the October 8 meeting has passed. The deadline for proposals for the November 12 meeting will be October 29; a response will be sent by November 19. Proposals for the December 12 IRB meeting are due by November 26; responses will be sent by December 19. For more information contact Leasor at 8264 or leasor@up.edu.
