IRBManager is a web-based system designed specifically for the Institutional Review Board (IRB) review process, all the way from submission to approval letters.

Investigators can sign forms electronically, collaborate with other investigators, and access the current status of the submission at any time. Investigators create their submissions in IRBManager using smart forms called "Xforms." Email notifications to investigators provide links to access, review, and update study material immediately. In fact, investigators have remote access capability from any computer with an internet connection. In addition, IRB reviewers will have access to a study's entire history as they conduct their review, enabling informed decisions quickly.
