Please Update Your Forms!
Please ensure you're using the current version of application forms! Always click on 'update forms' at the top of your screen, if there's an active button to do so! This helps ensure that you're using the correct version, answering the right questions, and providing all of the information the REB and ORI needs to do our parts of the process. Older versions of forms may be returned for updating. Thanks so much!
Please check expiration dates for active/ ongoing research studies
You can check a study's expiration date in ARIEL, under the 'Sites' tab--near the History tab, where you find approval letters for download. If your study has lapsed in NYGH REB approval, please submit a continuing renewal form as soon as possible, and a reportable event form (select 'protocol deviation' as the type) if research still occurred during a lapse. Please remember to allow enough time to renew your studies, and that renewal reminder emails are a courtesy only; the responsibility for maintaining ethical approval rests with the principal investigator. If a study has ended, please ensure that you submit a study completion/ study closure form. As usual, to start another form, go to the Work Area, then the 'Project Tree', and click on the 'Initial Submission' and/or the 'Ongoing Studies - Legacy Form'. Next, click on the 'Create Sub-Form' button that will appear on the upper left. If a project has been determined to be solely a QI project, no continuing renewals are needed. Thanks so much!
