Continuing Review (Project Renewal)/Final Report Form
Applicants who have received IRB approval and would like to renew their studies beyond the approved one-year period must fill out the form below and check off the “Continuing Review” box. If you have completed your approved study, you must complete and submit the same form below and check off the “Final Report” box. While the IRB makes every effort to remind researchers of the one-year approval deadline, applicants are solely responsible for submitting this paperwork in a timely fashion. Failure to submit this paperwork will be considered non-compliance, and applicants should not work on their projects until it is submitted. If you are unsure when your study expires, please contact the IRB Administrator or refer to your approval letter, which provides the expiration date.

Serious Adverse Events Form
If a human subject experiences serious psychological, physical, or emotional distress during or after participating in a study, the Principal Investigator must report the incident to the home IRB and to CUNY’s compliance officer, Patricia MacCubbin. Principal Investigators must discontinue working on the project until the event can be investigated and the issue resolved. For this reason, the IRB recommends that applicants who are asking their subjects sensitive questions include a referral for on-campus counseling in the consent form.
