(Since documents and forms are subject to change, they should be referenced and completed from this site before each submission is made to the IRB.)

We are in the process of changing the application forms and processes to seek approval for the use of human participants in research. In the interim, when submitting an application, please e-mail the application and provide one copy of the forms that require original signatures to the IRB office. When you e-mail the documents please try to compile all the materials in one file if possible. If not, please send the materials in a zipped file. If you have questions, please feel free to contact us at reviewboard@mail.montclair.edu

4. Ensure that each research team member, if applicable, completes steps 1-3. A research team member is anyone, who has contact with human participants and/or their data, such as Co-Principle Investigators, Faculty Sponsors, Research Assistants, Data Managers, Data Analysts, Volunteers, etc.

April 1, 2006 is the deadline for all active research studies, without all research staff certifications, to submit them to the MSU IRB.

Any applications to conduct research using human participants after April 1, 2006 will require copies of the certificates for all personnel to be submitted before approval is granted.

If you are a non-MSU researcher, we will accept your institution’s Human Participants Tutorial Certificate.
