Notification of Temporary or Permanent Change of Principal Investigator

Instructions:

The current Principal Investigator (PI), the new PI, and the Department Head must sign this form.

Attach this completed form to the "Amendment Coversheet" in question 1.2 then "Edit the Application" as follows:

1) Do not change the PI name in the Application question in 1.1. Once approved, the REB will change the name of the PI and will issue the certificate of approval to the new PI.

2) If the current PI is going on a temporary leave and still needs to access the study in RISe, then add their name to the list of co-investigators in question 1.3

3) Ensure that any study documents (e.g. consent or assent forms) are revised to reflect the change and attach these in the Application in View 9.

Note: If this is a temporary change, when the PI returns then an amendment must be submitted to reverse this change.
