Standing IRB’s for Business and Auxiliary Operations – FY 2012

Wayne State University is nearing the end of its fiscal year and it is time to update IRB files in preparation for the 2012 fiscal year. Standing IRBs issued for General Fund and Self-Supporting Activity Fund indexes (indexes beginning with 1 or 2) automatically expire at the end of the fiscal year: September 30, 2011.

For indexes beginning with 3, 4, or 9, the IRB expiration date may coincide with the end date of the index. However, please do not use an index number beyond its expiration date. This may prevent your order from being filled or delay service and cause time-consuming error corrections. If you intend to obtain any of the services listed below during fiscal year 2012, please initiate a new standing IRB and forward to Joyia Burgess, Business and Auxiliary Operations, 5221 Gullen Mall – Suite 470 by September 30, 2011.
