NEW! OU HRPP/IRB Emergency Preparedness Plan
The OU HRPP has established an Emergency Preparedness and Response Plan in the event an emergency occurs that affects the conduct of human research or the operations of the HRPP and IRBs. This plan applies to OU researchers and research teams, HRPP staff, IRB members, and all human research studies under the jurisdiction of OU IRBs. Researchers should be aware:
The Emergency Preparedness and Response Plan is available on the HRPP website About Us page HERE. Please contact the HRPP/IRB if you have questions by emailing irb@ouhsc.edu.
An Important Note from ORA – this is to notify the campus that the GRANTS team in ORA is currently short of SPAs. Please be patient and ensure your applications are submitted on time as required while we work through all proposals/requests and acquire new team members.
