Office Hours

Human Research Protection Office (HRPO) staff are available for weekly virtual office hours to provide assistance with IRB applications and any other IRB-related questions or concerns. Office Hours are for students, staff, and faculty researchers.

  • If IRB review/approval is required for your research proposal
  • Which application to submit and how to submit via IRBManager
  • Collaborative Research and Reliance Agreements
  • Informed Consent and more
