DASH RESEARCH IRB – LAUNCHING JANUARY 2026

At the request of the UT Faculty stakeholders, the DASH Research IRB targeted go-live date has been revised from November 2025 to January 2026. 

This adjustment will allow us to ensure a smoother transition by providing additional time for final system enhancements, thorough testing, and comprehensive training—ultimately supporting your research needs more effectively. 

We understand the importance of planning ahead, and we want to assure you that an updated implementation timeline, including key milestones and the confirmed go-live date, will be shared in the coming weeks. 

Your continued engagement and patience are greatly appreciated as we work to deliver a robust, user-friendly IRB platform. Additional communications will follow in the coming weeks with updated timelines and resources to support your transition. 
If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact the IRB Office
