About Streamlyne Community Updates

The Streamlyne Community project was made for the sole purpose of helping our investigators and students familiarize themselves with the Streamlyne platform by providing them with informative flyers and presentations. Besides Streamlyne related content, we will also post any important information regarding the IRB. 

When will new Community Updates be released?

New flyers with presentations will be posted monthly. Streamlyne Community Updates will first be posted as a community message on Outlook and then will be posted here the week after!
