IRBManager to Be Renamed to OneAegis

Effective Friday, June 9, IRBManager will be renamed to OneAegis. Two additional changes will also occur on that date: 1) The dashboard will be updated to a more modern layout, and 2) Emails generated from the system will now have a “From” field that reads “OneAegis on behalf of [user name]” and the return address will be listed as “[email protected]”.  Current IRBManager URLs will automatically redirect to the new OneAegis URLs following the change. Except for the new-look dashboard, the functionality of the system will remain the same (including the submission forms).

The Institutional Review Board (IRB), an entity of the Office of Research Compliance and Integrity, ensures that the basic rights and welfare of research participants are fostered and protected.  The IRB is comprised of GVSU faculty, staff and community members, who review proposed research studies involving living persons. The IRB supports researchers through its coordinated activities in education, regulatory compliance and oversight, and post approval-monitoring. All research involving human subjects performed at GVSU and/or by GVSU students, staff, and/or faculty must be reviewed and authorized by the IRB prior to the beginning of the research.

Informed Consent Document Templates

Below are informed consent document templates you can use for your IRB submission. The proper template to use will depend upon the level of review for your protocol (exempt or expedited/full board) and whether or not your study falls under the purview of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). If you are collecting identifiable information AND the data is being collected either electronically or in-person in a country belonging to the European Economic Area, your consent form must include GDPR language unless steps are taken to ensure participants are not providing data from a GDPR-regulated area. If you have any questions about which template to use, please contact the Office of Research Compliance and Integrity. 

 

If you are conducting a clinical study, do not use the templates above. Please contact the Office of Research Compliance and Integrity directly.

If you are looking for application forms, they are now housed on IRBManager, with the exception of the Individual Investigator Agreement Form and HIPAA forms listed below. Forms that are found in IRBManager include the New Protocol Submission Form, Research Determination Form, Continuing Review Form, Amendment Request Form, Reportable Event Form, and Closure Form.
