IRB Meeting Schedule & HRPO Calendar

Submissions must be deemed complete by 3:00 p.m. on the deadline date. 

The Meeting Dates and Deadlines listed are for submissions to which require review by the Full Board only.  Submissions that may be reviewed via the Expedited procedure or Exempt submissions are reviewed on an ongoing basis.

All submissions requiring Full Board review must be submitted and determined to be complete by the HRPO on or before the date of the submission deadline. A submission is deemed complete once the HRPO pre-review is done and any applicable ancillary reviews* are completed. Only submissions deemed complete by the HRPO by 3:00 p.m. on the date of the submission deadline will be considered for the corresponding IRB meeting date.

Due to volume constraints, committee member availability, and unforeseen circumstances, some submissions may be assigned to the subsequent IRB meeting. If your study is moved, the change will be reflected within IRBManager.

Please see the IRB Review Timeline for an estimation of the timeline of the review of your submission. 

Please see the Life of an IRB Submission for an illustration of the review process.

*Ancillary Reviews may be required depending on submission type. These reviews are completed by other Tulane offices outside of the HRPO. Examples include: Conflict of Interest, Sponsored Projects, Information Security, Research Complaince Office, General Counsel, etc.
