Department Access Departments are not automatically notified when new human subjects applications are submitted and they do not automatically get access to the department’s portfolio of studies. Department administrators can email hsdinfo@uw.edu [7] to request read-only access for studies in their department. Requests must come from the overall department administrator or department-wide manager. See Department Access [8] for more information on setting up this process
