For general instructions to eSIRIUS, go to the following website created by Cayuse: Cayuse Help. Once you have created an account, login and go to "Animal Oversight" tab.
Below you will find information regarding how to complete, route, and generate different documents in eSIRIUS.
General reminders:
- If the protocol or amendment you are drafting is tied to a grant for which you will require an approval letter, prior to submission, contact Dr. Silvia Racedo, IACUC Grant Specialist, by email: silvia.racedo@einsteinmed.edu. Failure to contact Dr. Racedo prior to submission will delay the process of obtaining an approval letter.
- You should only attach documents to the following sections of the protocol application: (a) Department Funding, and (b) Transfer/Core. Do not attach other documents to any other section of the protocol application, unless you have been specifically instructed to do so in a review comment. If you have any questions regarding protocol attachments, email: iacuc@einsteinmed.edu.
