Research Administration Platforms Transition
The Huron IRB system is now live.
For details on navigating the IRB process at Ohio State, visit our Huron IRB go-live page for the latest information.
Ohio State will be transitioning to the Huron Research Suite to support and facilitate several research administration functions over the next few years. The system is used widely and provides one, integrated, comprehensive research administration solution across multiple areas of ERIK-managed research activities. The solutions also integrate with existing Ohio State systems - in fact, several Huron systems are already used at Ohio State.
Buck-IRB Transition to Huron IRB
The first solution to be live is the Huron IRB system that will replace Buck-IRB. The Huron system will allow the IRB process to be consolidated into one system, from protocol development to submission, and finally to IRB review and approval. The Huron system is based on accredited IRB operating norms and will address some of the pain points of Buck-IRB by providing enhanced reporting, version tracking, progress tracking, and more. Each investigator will have their own dashboard that displays their studies and identifies items requiring attention.
Other Transitions
Other research administration tools will be transitioning to Huron in the future, including:
- IACUC
- Contracts and Agreements
- Animal Operations
- Conflict of Interest
- Export Control
