The Office for Human Research Protections (OHRP) has recently released a draft guidance document regarding the transfer of a previously IRB approved research project to a new IRB or new institution.
This guidance, when finalized, will help investigators, staff and the IRB understand what is required when such projects are transferred.
The ORPC staff will be working with the IRB over the next several months to develop procedures for this process and will inform the campus community of the progress. In the meantime, please review these links for more information.
