When you’ve completed your study, please log in to CLARA and submit a study closure form. It’s appropriate to close the study once you have completed study activities that involve identifiable data. Once the IRB office processes the form, the study will be officially closed in the IRB system. If you fail to close a completed study, you will continue to receive reminders about your continuing review expiring. Studies that are not formally closed are also subject to being selected for an audit by the Office of Research Compliance. So if you have completed your research project, please log in to CLARA and submit that closure form!
