Continuing and conducting human subjects use research

As the university is moving forward with plans related to COVID-19, the OPRC staff reminds investigators to be careful and respectful of participants who decide to be involved in human subjects research, be vigilant about creating any new risks and submit promptly (within 5 days) any modifications necessary to revise applications and consent documents. 

Our office is actively monitoring the email inbox (irbsubmissions@umbc.edu) for protocol related questions and submissions as well as our office phone (410-455-2737).  Please review the ORPC business continuity plan for additional steps to complete IRB review. 

If you have any other questions, please contact us at compliance@umbc.edu
