Proposals subject to IRB review will be reviewed by the board on a monthly basis. See below for upcoming submission deadlines. You will receive a response (approved, denied, or revise) from the IRB within approximately two to three weeks of the submission deadline. This may take longer in November and December due to the holidays and the number of proposals received.
