Reminders about existing Just-in-Time requirements - IRB and IACUC

As noted in the revised policy on responsibilities for Just-in-Time submissions (NOT-OD-10-120), several pieces of a grant application are not required at the time the application. This is information will be requested later in the review cycle. Related to IRB and IACUC protocols:

IACUC Approval Date: If the proposed project involves research using live vertebrate animals, the verification date of IACUC approval along with any IACUC-imposed changes must be submitted. Pending or out-of-date approvals are not acceptable.

IRB Approval Date: If the proposed project involves human subjects research, the certification date of IRB review and approval must be submitted. Pending or out-of-date approvals are not acceptable.

Human Subjects Education: If the proposed project involves human subjects research, certification that any person identified as senior/key personnel involved in human subjects research has completed an education program in the protection of human subjects must be submitted.
