Project Eligibility

• ALL projects must involve a PI who is a faculty member, employed and paid, by UConn Health or UConn.
• ALL projects must show proof of research use by providing the appropriate IRB documentation:
  • a UConn/UConn Health approval letter or exempt determination letter, or
  • a letter from the UConn/UConn Health IRB agreeing to rely on another IRB for oversight, or
  • a Human Subjects Research Determination form signed by the UConn/UConn Health Human Subjects Protections Office indicating that the project is “NOT human subjects research” – the project MUST still be for research purposes only
    
• Your study materials dictate what and how data can be collected  – this includes the usage of REDCap. Please refer to your approved study plan to determine if and how your project can utilize REDCap – this information can be found in the protocol, consent forms, IRB application, Data Security Assessment, HIPAA authorization/waiver, etc. ALL project fields and forms/instruments should match what has been approved.
• ALL projects must have an end date and cannot remain in REDCap indefinitely. REDCap cannot be used for data/project storage; once active data collection has ended, the project and its data need to be removed from the system. For more information: Managing Your Data.
