Information Sessions: A new submission process for NHSR and other projects that do not require IRB review
News and announcements released by WVU OHRP and the WVU IRBs
Coming Soon: New submission process for NHSR and other projects not requiring IRB review
Coming Soon: A new submission process for NHSR and other projects that do not require IRB review will be in effect on December 9th. The process for Flex submissions will remain the same. As a reminder, while shown as NHSR/Flex in WVU+kc, these are two unique protocol types—NHSR and Flex. These two protocol types were initially combined into one (NHSR/Flex) submission process in WVU+kc because of system limitations when the Flex protocol type was rolled out in 2018. Any new and pending NHSR protocol submissions should be submitted by November 22nd to allow for sufficient time for processing ahead of the transition. Information on the new process will be communicated soon! If you have any questions, please email irb@mail.wvu.edu.
