myResearch Transition Timetable - Updated Information

The myResearch transition timetable has been updated with information on key dates associated with transition arrangements for Monash Research Office (MRO) Coversheet and Human Ethics Applications.

MRO Coversheet
Friday 1 July - Monday 11 July 2016 (inclusive)
Researchers should continue to use the existing MRO coversheets for applications being submitted between 1-11 July.  This includes the existing process of obtaining signatures and forwarding the completed and signed coversheet to the MRO.  
MRO staff will then enter these details into Pure once it goes live on 12 July.

From 12 July, the MRO coversheet will no longer be available and all researchers are required to enter their application details via the ‘Create an application’ process in Pure.


Human Ethics Applications 
Thursday 7 July - Monday 11 July (inclusive)
The last day for accepting new applications on the current PDF forms is Wednesday 6 July 2016.   Please note that the MRO can only accept a maximum of 20 HREC Review applications for meeting C4/2016. Applications will be processed in order of receipt and those received after the maximum number will be asked to resubmit in ERM after 12 July.  

Projects under review prior to 6 July 2016 will be finalised using the current process.

No new applications will be accepted during the period 7-11 July, as the MRO prepare for the release of the new application form in Ethics Review Manager (ERM) on 12 July.

Please note: The questions on the new form are almost identical to the questions on the current PDF forms, so the PDF form can be used for planning purposes. The information can then be copied into the new form when that is available from 12 July.

Amendments, progress reports and any other correspondence relating to existing approved projects will continue to be processed using the PDF forms, until the existing projects are able to be imported into ERM.

Importing existing projects into ERM is planned for the second half of this year and researchers will be informed when they can access their projects in ERM.
