Click's IRB module replaces IRBNET for all UB researchers, allowing you to work faster and work smarter. When contininuing renewals, use Modifications/CR. Also use Modifications to select both study team member information and other parts of the study.
Designed with the researcher in mind, Click IRB allows you to stay current on your submissions, improving the protocol submission and approval process. This user-friendly software system guides you during the submission process and provides you with a better understanding of the smart forms.
Benefits in Brief
The Click Agreements module provides a single, convenient location for investigators to request research-related proposals and contracts. It includes Sponsored Research Agreements, Material Transfer Agreements, Clinical Trial Agreements, Nondisclosure Agreements and other documents useful for reviews and negotiation.
Designed to strengthen committe oversight while also accelerating the preparation, submission and review of research studies, the Click Safety module incorporates forms for:
The solution accommodates standalone safety committee applications and integrates with IRB, IACUC and other compliance and funding processes such as grants.
UB’s Environmental, Health and Safety (EH&S) facilitated Click Safety, the second module rolled out at UB from SUNY’s Pre-Award and Compliance System (PACS) project.

The Click Grants module will provide a platform for system to system proposal submissions for most Grants.Gov applications. It has budgeting capability, offers award information and will be used for proposal routing, credit distribution and approvals.
Implementation is planned with a soft roll in January 2017 and a full implementation in July 2017. If you are interested in being an early user please contact your Proposal Specialist in Sponsored Projects Services.
Click COI is an electronic, centralized conflict-of-interest management system for all types of disclosures: transactional; annual certification; and research specific.
The Click IACUC module improves collaboration between investigators, IACUC coordinators, training coordinators, veterinary reviewers and committee members during all IACUC activities.
We will implement the Click IACUC module between 1/1/2017 and 3/31/2017. This includes harmonization of the module between SUNY schools, pilot programs at UB and software testing. We anticipate rollout in Spring 2017.
