Submission Deadlines
- All submissions are considered on a rolling basis and assessed by the COUHES staff for full board or expedited review.
- Protocols assigned to full board review are reviewed at monthly meetings by the full COUHES Committee on the dates listed above.
- Protocols are assigned to a convened meeting once the application has been submitted and the investigator has addressed any outstanding compliance review questions.
- Submission prior to the upcoming meeting date does not guarantee the protocol will be assigned to the next convened meeting.
- Incomplete applications will be returned to the Investigator.
COUHES advises submission of protocols 6-8 weeks prior to the anticipated start date.
