Human research review process moves to online only

Grand Valley's Human Research Review Committee is no longer accepting paper submissions, as all research protocol will be converted to an electronic format.

Paul Reitemeier, chair of HRRC, said all research records and correspondence will be managed using IRBNet, an industry leader in electronic data security and management systems. He added that the new system will simplify the application and authorization process and speed the review process.

“Using IRBNet, faculty researchers will be able to upload documents, make revisions, and communicate with the HRRC office staff from any Internet-connected computer in the world at no cost,” he said.
