Meeting Deadlines and Schedules

New proposals that require convened board review will be sent to the Kansas City campus IRB that meets the 2nd and 4th Tuesdays of each month. There are no submission deadlines. Complete submissions are placed on the agenda of the next available meeting.

For Continuing Review: Please ensure that your request for continuation is received at least 21 days before the project expires. If studies are not submitted before that date, there may not be sufficient time to review before your approval lapses.

When the Kansas City IRB reviews full-board projects from the Wichita campus, a consultant from the Wichita campus will provide input about local considerations.  Typically, the consultant will be a former Wichita IRB member with appropriate expertise. Consultation also might be provided by department of campus leadership. 

Investigators can contact Rachel Marsh, M.Ed., at 316-293-2610 or rmarsh@kumc.edu with any questions.
