Research and Sponsored Programs Forms

Either submit the docusign form linked below or fill out the pdf and email to orsp@osteo.wvsom.edu.

  • ORSP-1 Research Initiation Request Form

    • This form is required to gain approval for research projects conducted by WVSOM.
    • Use this form when initiating a new research project with global specific aims.  There is no need to complete an additional ORSP-1 form when adding subjects, species, or interventions, if the general aims are the same.  Simply email the ORSP and describe the additional details.
    • To add or remove personnel from an approved research project, simply email the ORSP with the individual's name, role, and contact information (along with the approved research project ID).
    • For sponsored project applications (e.g. grants that are not research projects), there is no need to complete this form.

  • Intramural Grant Application

    • Use this form when submitting request for INTERNAL funds for research projects, along with an ORSP-1 form if the research project has not previously been approved.
    • Currently, intramural grant applications are due August 15, December 15, and April 15.

  • ORSP Sponsored Projects/Grants Intake Form

    • This form is required.  Rather, it is to give the ORSP a heads up on intended grant submissions, prior to the details being determined.
    • Use this form if you know in well in advance that you will be applying for a particular grant/award, but do not have a draft of the narrative or budget to provide the office.
    • Again, this form is NOT required, but it is much appreciated so the ORSP staff can plan appropriately and ensure somebody is here during the 7 business days leading up to the award submission.

  • ORSP-5 Grant Internal Approval Form 

    • This form is a required form that must be completed prior to the ORSP submitting an EXTERNAL grant or sponsored project.
    • Submit this form with a complete budget and budget narrative at least 7 business days prior to the grant/award submission deadline, per Procedures for extramural submission on the Pre-Award page.

  • Contract vs. Subaward Determination Form

    • Use this form to help determine whether an entity receiving funds has a contractor or subaward relationship with the grant recipient.

  • ORSP-6 Financial Interest Disclosure (SFID)

    • WVSOM employees and students should complete this form online at my.wvsom.edu under the "Researcher Conflict of Interest" link.
    • This form is for non-WVSOM investigators/program directors.  To access this form, contact the ORSP.

  • Non-Research Scholarly Activity Form (NRSA)

    • This form is to document non-research scholarly activity.  This form is required. Please see the instructions below.
    • Use this prior to initiating a project to ensure it is being conducted appropriately and following all WVSOM policy and procedure.
    • Submitting this form PRIOR to initiating the project generally makes students eligible to request funding for travel/poster presentations, if funding is available.
    • This form includes a Determination of non-human subjects research request.

  • ORSP-8 Time and Effort Certification

    • In cases where a single, small award is provided to a Principal Investigator/Project Director (“PI/PD”), which includes stipends, non-salary compensation, or a contractual sponsored award that may not be entered into the Grant Time and Effort Certification System, the commitment shall be certified by the employee using the ORSP-8: Time and Effort Certification form.
    • The ORSP-8 form shall be completed and signed by the individual, provided to the PI/PD for certification and signature and then submitted to the ORSP. This type of certification must occur at least bi-annually.
