The IRB is currently experiencing a high volume of submissions. As a result, review times may be longer than usual. Please plan accordingly and submit your applications as early as possible to avoid delays in your research timeline.
We appreciate your patience and cooperation. If you have any questions, please contact irb@byu.edu or 801-422-3606.
If you need assistance, don't hesitate to reach out via email or schedule a Zoom consultation. We're here to help!
The IRB process can be broken down into three sections:
A study can be closed once it is closed to recruitment (with no direct participant follow-up), and all data collection has concluded. Data analysis of de-identified data can continue after the protocol is closed. There are different types of closures and protocol suspensions.
