Does anyone have an institutional policy on the acceptability of using electronic signatures?  Obviously the federal government approves this for submitting grant applications and related documents, but we would like to formulate a policy at our institution that we accept electronic signatures for grant applications, IRB and IACUC protocols, etc.  If you care to share, you can send to me directly (xxxxxx@slu.edu) or to the list.  Thanks!

Carole
