*********IMPORTANT NOTE TO PIs OF PAPER STUDIES (approved prior to e-Protocol):
This will be the final year that continuations will be handled using paper copies as we are in the process of streamlining all protocols and transitioning them to e-Protocol. We are asking all researchers with "paper approved" studies to enter each of their studies into e-Protocol, where they will undergo a new review. To be sure there is not a break in the approval, the conversion to e-Protocol should be undertaken at least 4 months prior to the next expiration date for each study. Please see the information above regarding how to submit your study through e-Protocol.
