Re: Project No. & Proposal No. Marsha Green 12 Dec 1996 19:06 EST

 Our IRB protocols have a separate numbering system from our proposals;
 however, when a proposal is submitted to an agency, we have a route
 sheet that must circulate in the appropriate offices then eventually
 comes to me for processing in our database.  Because I process both
 the protocols and the proposals, I am aware of when a human subject
 protocol is required and can track to make sure a protocol has been
 submitted/approved.  The proposal file isn't filed away until the
 protocol is received.  The protocol number is written on the route
 sheet in the proposal file and the proposal number is written on the
 cover sheet in the protocol file.  Therefore, there's no searching for
 it when needed.

I would like to know if anyone has developed a system to link the IRB and/or
IACUC project approval number(s) with the grant proposal number.  We recently
had a case in which the title of the IRB project and the title of the grant
proposal were different and we had to do soem in depth, paper-file hunting to
discover the link.  Part of the difficulty arises from the requirements fo
different agencies with regard to approval (ranging from "needs approval prior
to applying for the grant" to "needs approval within 90 days of receiving
funding approval").
