UCLA OHRPP IRB Submissions

OHRPP IRB Submissions

The Office of Human Research Protection Program supports an internet-based software IRB electronic submission system to manage the submission, review, and approval of research projects involving human subjects.   The electronic IRB submission system is designed to branch in response to information provided about the study procedures. The system requires an account that uses the single sign-on UCLA Logon ID credential.

BruinIRB: Submission and review of all active studies is managed in BruinIRB as of July 1, 2025.  See BruinIRB Deployment FAQs for more information.

webIRB: Access to webIRB was deactivated for researchers as of 07/01/2025.  Active studies have been migrated to the replacement BruinIRB application.

Please contact BruinIRB@research.ucla.edu with any questions.

Consult the BruinIRB Resource Library for quick guides, training videos, and other information.
