New Feature: SIRBs and Study Managers can Resend Study Notification to Sites

The sIRB and Study Manager can now re-notify/contact a site about a study by resending the “IREx study at your site” notification. This is done by clicking the site’s ‘Contacted’ status from the Status Summary tab. The subject line of the email notification will include the sender’s name who is re-contacting the site (e.g., “Jane Smith is resending your IREx Study Notification”). This feature is used to follow up with sites that have not yet started on the study.

Updated Feature: The Manage Version, site amendment pop-up has been updated

On the Study-wide IRB Approvals tab for sIRBs and Study Manager, the “+Add Site Amendment” button on the Manage Version tab has been updated to include pop-up text directing users, “To add a SITE amendment click on the Approval History tab”. This is to reflect the changes where sIRBs and Study Managers can add site amendments from the Approval History tab.

New Feature: SIRBs and Study Managers can Add Site Coordinator Access to IREx

IREx now allows sIRBs and Study Managers to give coordinator access at sites that have registered for their study. For convenience, sIRBS and Study Managers can give coordinators access from:

  • the Approval History tab, select the site from the View As dropdown and select +Add Site Coordinator Access from the site menu.
  • the Participating Personnel dialog, select the +Grant Site Coordinator Access.

View this Add Site Coordinator Access Quick Guide for reference.

New Feature: An email notification is sent to the PI when a new coordinator is added at their site.

When a sIRB or Study Manager gives a site coordinator access to their study, an email notification, “New Coordinator Added” is sent to the PI. The email lists the study title, the sIRB Liaison or Study Manager who added the coordinator, site name, new coordinator name and email, and link to the study.
