Update on Web IRB

The UCLA Web IRB process is moving along. There was a setback due to the recalculation of dates for the AAHRPP accreditation.

The task force last met on February 29th and is now reviewing the forms for continuations and amendments.

It seems, as of now, that there will no longer be a difference between continuations and renewals as all of the questions will be asked in the form for each continuation. This seems to actually be a good thing and will most likely make the process that much easier.

Additionally, it seems as for the Medical Campus, Medical IRB 2 will be the first to roll out, though it hasn't quite been decided which investigators.

Check back for more updates.
