This is the regular (generic) research summary template which is required for all regular applications (unless your protocol fits under the other research summary templates in this category).
In iRIS, these research summaries are part of the application.
- Coordinating Center Regular Study Application Research Summary Template for iRIS submission of a multi-site clinical research protocol, regular study application in which Duke is “engaged in research” and serves as a Coordinating Center (e.g., central clinical coordinating center, statistical coordinating center) or provides a central resource (e.g., Data Coordinating Center, Health Economics and Quality of Life (EQOL) coordinating center, Clinical Events Committee, Central Imaging, etc.) for the study.
- Coordinating Center Request for Exemption Research Summary Template for iRIS submission of a multi-site Coordinating Center Study Application research protocol (e.g., central clinical coordinating center, statistical coordinating center, or a central resource such as Data Coordinating Center, Health Economics and Quality of Life (EQOL) coordinating center, Clinical Events Committee, Central Imaging, etc.) in which Duke may be considered “not engaged in human subjects research".
- Database and Specimens Repository Research Summary Template for iRIS submission of a data and/or specimens repository protocol from DCRI under which samples and/or private information are collected and stored for future research.

Education research projects include evaluation of teaching sessions, curricula, courses, programs, simulations and surveys that represent an important means by which Duke University and Duke University Hospital/Health System (DUHS) achieves its mission of training health professionals to provide effective and safe care for their patients, loved ones and each other. Education research projects range in scope from local efforts to improve the quality of teaching to larger trials of innovative methods designed for a more generalizable impact. Regardless of the project’s size, the education project leader(s) must determine whether the project meets the federal definition of research with humans. If it does, the leader(s) must then consider whether the research may qualify for exemption from further review by the DUHS Institutional Review Board, and if so, consider requesting such an exemption.
This QI template/instructions should only be used for Quality Improvement (QI) Projects. The template is designed for projects involving the translation of existing knowledge into clinical practice.
