Overview
If a submission was approved with contingencies, and the contingencies addressed by the Study Team require a review by the committee members prior to final approval, then IRB Staff will send the submission to a Designated Reviewer(s) to complete the contingency review.
Designated Reviewers asked to review a submission will be notified via email. Reviewers should access eRRM submissions assigned to them via the email link (e.g. REV00123456).
