Schulman IRB and iMedRIS Announce Partnership

Cincinnati, OH and Redlands, CA - Schulman IRB, the industry-leading central IRB for customer service and technology, and iMedRIS Data Corporation, the fastest growing technology provider for optimizing research compliance and administration software, are pleased to announce their partnership to provide research organizations with integrated technology, consulting and IRB review services.

Rather than contracting with multiple disparate service providers, research organizations and institutions can now work with a single organization for IRB review services, research management technology, and good clinical practice (GCP) and human research protections (HRP) consulting services.

“This partnership offers unparalleled service integration for ultimate ease of use,” said Michael Woods, President and CEO at Schulman IRB. “Schulman is delighted to now be able to offer clients the industry’s most flexible and user friendly research management tools available.”

“iMedRIS and Schulman share the same high standards of customer service and support, and we are excited to share Schulman’s services with our clients,” said William Schroeder, CEO at iMedRIS. “This represents two of the research community’s most trusted partners coming together to provide an integrated service package of unprecedented opportunities.”

This integration reflects the first phase in iMedRIS’ and Schulman IRB’s partnership. The two organizations will continue to evaluate their service offerings to find additional ways that clients can benefit from the collaboration.
