A virtual 60‑minute workshop will bring together institutional review board and information security experts to guide researchers through the ongoing obligations that extend beyond initial approval. The session will outline what reviewers expect in a data plan, including descriptions of identifiable data, consent and privacy commitments, de‑identification, coding, external data sharing and reporting changes during a study. It will also cover practical steps for safeguarding data on the systems where it resides, such as appropriate storage and access controls, protection of sensitive information, secure transfer, collaboration and common pitfalls.
A dedicated segment will address vendor risk management, explaining why new tools, applications and cloud services used in research must be evaluated before data is placed in them, what the review process examines, typical timelines and how to plan early to avoid delays. Participants will learn where IRB and security requirements intersect, which campus resources and approved services are available for storing and sharing research data, and the appropriate contacts at each stage. The workshop includes ample time for questions and is open to all university faculty, researchers, postdoctoral scholars, graduate students and research staff. Presenters are Renea Carver and Antonio Fazzalari.
