Institutional Review Board (IRB)

Important notice about IRB Policies and Procedures:
In accordance with our federalwide assurance (FWA), the SUNY Cortland IRB is responsible for implementing human subjects regulations and guidance provided by HHS-OHRP, FDA, and ORI. Investigators are asked to be mindful that these are dynamic organizations; regulations and guidance change alongside advancements in science, methodology, and technology. This is a time of opportunity, rapid growth and development in virtually all scientific disciplines. As federal and state requirements change, SUNY Cortland's Policies and Procedures will change accordingly. Barring any urgent regulatory changes, adjustments are made to SUNY Cortland's Policies and Procedures during the summer. Investigators will be notified of major changes when the fall semester begins.
