On Wednesday 2 September, ARSAC (the Administration of Radioactive Substances Advisory Committee) launched an online portal to apply for approval of new research studies.
Uploading applications to the portal is a quick and simple way to apply for approval of new research studies from ARSAC. Applicants can monitor the progress of their applications, respond to queries and share access to their submissions with colleagues.
There is no change to the documents required or the way in which ARSAC reviews applications.
In the future, the ARSAC online portal will be further developed to enable applicants to submit other types of applications, including those for research amendments, employer and practitioner licences.
