After a protocol has been approved, researchers may need to submit or be asked for “follow-on submissions”. Follow-on submissions is a term that is used when referencing an amendment, continuing review, a combined amendment/continuing review, or triennial review. The PI is responsible for annual continuing reviews, triennial reviews, and creating any necessary amendments. All of these options are listed under the “Next Steps” menu (see picture below) for the approved protocol, which can be found in the parent protocol workspace.
