ARIA is the Automated Research Information Administrator. All IRB submissions and correspondence are accomplished through ARIA. Prior to receiving an ARIA username and password, one must take the Human Research Protection Program courses offered through the CITI Program.

All research projects involving human subjects must be submitted to the committee through use of the IRB forms prior to initiation of the research. Principal investigators submitting to the IRB should refer to the IRB Standard Operating Policies and Procedures for specific guidelines on conduct of human research studies. This department is in the process of developing a new user-friendly IRB Investigator's Handbook.

This department also offers tips on submitting research protocols.
