Beat the Holiday Rush

IRB Administration will operate with limited staffing from Monday, December 22, 2025, through Friday, January 2, 2026. We’ll resume normal operations on Monday, January 5, 2026.
We also tend to see a high volume of submissions in January, which may extend processing times. If you’ll need a determination early in the new year, please plan ahead and submit early.

Three’s Committee Too

We’re down to our final three IRB committee meetings of the year. If you’re planning to submit a project that requires full committee review, please keep these remaining Wednesdays in mind:

  • December 3, 2025 (Committee A)
  • December 10, 2025 (Committee B)
  • December 17, 2025 (Committee A)

Getting a jump on next year? The 2026 IRB Meeting Dates are posted on our About IRB webpage.

FAQs

Are IRB analysts now using health.ucdavis.edu emails?

No. Our IRB analysts continue to use their @ucdavis.edu email addresses. Please be sure to email them at their ucdavis.edu accounts rather than health.ucdavis.edu to ensure your message reaches the right inbox.
