IIRB News<\/h3>\n

IRB Submissions and Review will be moving to a new system, Cayuse, beginning on August 3, 2026<\/strong>. Many investigators may already be familiar with Cayuse, which has been operational for Grant Submissions since it went live\u00a0 in FALL 2025. Here is a letter fron Lynda Mules, CUNY’s Executive Director of Research Compliane, that explains the process and the timeline.<\/p>\n

What to Expect in July<\/strong><\/p>\n

Starting July 6, we will temporarily pause new submissions to the IRB. This includes new applications, amendments to approved projects, and other submission types.\u00a0 The purpose of the quiet period is to accommodate the transfer of data from IRBManager to Cayuse Human Ethics.\u00a0<\/p>\n

If you have an urgent need (because of federal funding, for example) to submit a new IRB application, amendment, event (such as non-compliance or an adverse event) or other submission, please contact your HRPP Coordinator<\/a> for guidance. \u00a0<\/p>\n
