Submitting a Research Protocol
Please submit your completed IACUC protocol in I-Manager at least two weeks before the next protocol review session.
The protocol will be sent to all IACUC members, who will have 5 working days to request a full committee review. If full committee review is requested, the protocol will be assigned to the next full committee meeting agenda. Otherwise, it will be reviewed at the next IACUC protocol review (designated member review) meeting date.
Protocols submitted after the submission deadline will be held until the following month. If alternative arrangements need to be made they must be approved by the Chair of the IACUC before the review date deadline. The IACUC appreciates your cooperation in this matter.
