*These deadlines do NOT apply to exempt or expedited submissions which are instead reviewed by a designated IRB member on a rolling basis. Most UMB IRB submissions do not require review at a convened IRB meeting and are instead triaged in order of receipt for non-committee review. Therefore, it is strongly recommended that PIs submit as soon as applications are ready and not wait until the full board deadline date.

Learn more about the types of IRB review.

Submissions are due by 3 pm on the deadline date*

Meetings are generally held from 12:30 pm to 3 pm. Dates/times are subject to change.
