New Protocol Setup in I-CTMS
Effective May 2, 2023 you will no longer complete a separate form to request a protocol setup in the I-CTMS (OnCore). The request process is now handled directly in the HawkIRB application process by selecting "yes" to question V.27.
After the new application is complete, a notification will be sent to the I-CTMS Admin Team, who will initiate the study setup. After final approval in HawkIRB, the remainder of the setup will be completed and you will be notified about its status in the ICTMS.
In addition, if you elect to request a calendar and budget setup, you will be included in all correspondence regarding the calendar and budget build process. Reach out to ictms-admin@uiowa.edu with questions.
