Deadlines and Meeting Dates

Deadlines

The expected review process is based on the review type required for the submitted research proposal by the IRB:

1. ‘Exempt’ proposals – a minimum of two weeks;
2. ‘Expedited’ proposals – a minimum of three weeks;
3. ‘Full-Board’ proposals – must be electronically submitted to the IRB a minimum of two weeks prior to the next occurring scheduled IRB meeting. Duration of the review process will vary according to the specifics of the research proposal.

Meeting Location
