If you are an external investigator wishing to collect data from persons associated with CSUB [e.g., CSUB students, faculty, staff] or access personally identifiable data of such persons you need to submit to the CSUB HSIRB either:

[a] a CSUB HSIRB protocol so that the CSUB can be responsible for human subjects protections of the proposed research or

[b] the Cayuse HSIRB Initial form & External Investigator Agreement for Human Subjects Research: Deferral to an External HSIRB, so the CSUB HSIRB can defer responsibility to an external HSIRB.

If you are an external or CSUB investigator wishing to engage in cooperative research [e.g., a project with multiple investigators on several campuses], you need to submit to the Cayuse HSIRB Initial form & Cooperative Research Agreement for Human Subjects Research section. This section will allow the determination of whether the CSUB HSIRB will be:

[a] the reviewing/authorizing HSIRB for this research or

[b] the CSUB HSIRB will defer to and rely on an external HSIRB to provide the human subjects protections for the proposed research.
