Submission Deadlines
Typically, deadlines are somewhat flexible. Please contact the IACUC office at ooacc@uchc.edu if it is imperative that your submission be on a particular agenda date and you are submitting after the deadline date and time as it will require the approval of the IACUC Chair. The only exceptions to this are the deadlines for the November and December agendas – the deadlines are FIRM at noon on the date listed.
Only complete protocols will be reviewed by the IACUC; simply submitting a protocol by the deadline does not mean that the protocol is ready for Committee review. If your protocol is returned for any reason, you must resubmit the revised protocol by the deadline date to be considered at that month’s meeting.
Reviews after the meetings are sent to the PI as soon as possible; however, please note that the IACUC requires 2-3 business days to process reviews. Please do not call the IACUC office about the status of your reviewed submission immediately after the meeting; if you have not received your review by the end of the day on the Tuesday following the IACUC meeting, please call the IACUC office at x3429 or email at ooacc@uchc.edu.
