Quorum Offers Streamlined Start-up Package for Institutions
In response to requests from both sponsors and institutions, Quorum Review IRB has developed an institutional start-up package. The start-up package is designed to make it easy for an institution to establish a working relationship with Quorum.
The package contains template contracts, a guide to developing consent forms, and examples of customized cover pages for site submissions. To find Quorum's institutional start-up package, please see the "Institutions" section of QuorumReview.com.
Review Boards within institutions are looking for ways that they can expand their current capacity and improve their review cycle timelines without increasing costs. Some institutions are looking for secondary supplier alternatives while others are looking to focus on research and outsource the IRB function all together. As an AAHRPP accredited IRB, Quorum offers high quality ethics reviews to institutions interested in shifting some or all of their reviews to an independent ethics review board.
Quorum’s best-in-class service and support includes 3 protocol board meetings a week, daily amendment board meetings, 24 hour site review turnaround, 36 hour amendment review turnaround, and a secure OnQ™ web portal for online submissions, downloads and submission status review. Quorum can review studies in the US and Canada, review federally funded studies and has a specially designated Phase I study management team.
