TIP OF THE MONTH:

"Want to help reduce the amount of time your submission is under IRB review? Use the NEW Investigator IRB Pre-Check checklist! This checklist identifies issues that commonly delay review of new study submissions. The Pre-Check has been designed with input from study teams (Thank you, to those who contributed!). This will help to facilitate a smooth review process and shorten time to IRB approval. If you have a new study that has not yet received a pre-review from the IRB office, we encourage you to use the checklist and to update your study documents now while you are waiting for an IRB review. For questions, please email us at IRB@umassmed.edu or join us in Office Hours. Thanks!"
