SMART IRB is a platform designed to ease common challenges associated with initiating multisite research and to provide a roadmap for institutions to implement the NIH Single IRB Review policy (effective date: January 25, 2018).
IRB Reliance Exchange (IREx) is a web-based portal freely available to support Single IRB review documentation and communication.
