SPO Proposal Submission
SPO will process proposals due in December 2014 and January 2015 according to the VCR’s five-day proposal submission policy with the following exceptions:
| Deadlines | Due to SPO* |
|---|---|
| From Monday, December 22, 2014 through (and including) Friday, January 2, 2015 | 8 am on Monday, December 15, 2014 |
| Monday, January 5, 2015 | 8 am on Tuesday, December 16, 2014 |
| Tuesday, January 6, 2015 | 8 am on Wednesday, December 17, 2014 |
| Wednesday and Thursday, January 7 and 8, 2015 | noon on Thursday, December 18, 2014 |
| Friday, January 9, 2015 | 8 am on Monday, January 5, 2015 |
*Note: Proposals submitted to SPO with a draft technical section on or before the five business day deadline will be considered “on time” if the proposal is complete in all other respects.
Principal Investigators also are encouraged to inform their SPO Contract and Grant Officer (CGO) if they will be submitting a proposal with a due date just prior to, during, or just after the curtailment period. This will give SPO and the PI an opportunity to discuss the best way to handle the proposal to make sure it is submitted in a timely manner.
COI Disclosure Submission

- The deadline for submission for the December 11, 2014 meeting is November 25, 2014.
Please note that all protocols and protocol revisions must be submitted via email to acuc@berkeley.edu by 5 pm on the deadline date. If you wish to make changes to an approved protocol, you must first contact the Office for Animal Care and Use (OACU) to obtain a copy of the current approved version of your protocol. Failure to do so may result in your protocol being returned to you.
