UW’s HRPP Toolkit has standard operating procedures, flow charts, and worksheets that outline the HRPP’s emergency preparedness and response plans. In the event of an emergency, disaster, or disruptive event that is affecting or is likely to affect essential HRPP operations and/or the ability to conduct research, tailored communications will be sent to investigators, research staff, IRB members, and HRPP and IRB staff, as applicable, via the ARROW and HRPP listservs to provide information and guidance to affected personnel. These communications will likely be accompanied by campus level communications about the event. Members of the HRPP can re-familiarize themselves with the applicable toolkit documents at the links below:
