How to Submit

How to Submit Electronic IRB Submissions

91 University investigators are required to use the Cayuse Human Ethics module to submit applications to the 91 IRB. All new human subject research studies must be submitted using the Initial Application Form. All forms within the HE module are “smart” forms that add/remove questions based on your responses. Therefore, it is important that you answer every available question to avoid submitting an incomplete form. The initial application form is also utilized by the IRB to make non-human subject and/or non-research determinations, as well as process external reliance registrations, delayed onset determinations, and emergency research reports. 

To facilitate your use of the system, we have posted guidance documents below.

Fill out the Cayuse Access Request Form. Please note that all notifications/approvals in Cayuse are sent to your campus email so you must be able to receive your 91 email to properly use the system. If you would like Cayuse notifications to be sent to a different email address, you may forward your campus email.

Non-91 Employees and Students

If you are requesting access to Cayuse, but NOT REDCap, please fill out the Cayuse Access Request Form. Provide your work email when prompted for a 91 email.

If you need access to Cayuse AND REDCap, fill out the New Account Request Form, Please plan appropriately as it can take up to one week to obtain a 91 account and set up access to REDCap.
