WEEK 4

First, let me say, Au Cheval here in Chicago is to die for. That is all.

So, in the last week Mari and I completed the IRB proposal for the project, of course with the help of our mentor. It is currently in the process of being reviewed, or at least it has been submitted. We have called a couple places trying to informally look into recruitment options for participants in our study if at all possible, but so far that hasn’t been very fruitful. We’ve also been making some connections and reaching out to find people who are more well versed in the process and get some steering in the right direction. Supplies have been found, and while we’re really excited to get started, we obviously can’t do too much before the project is approved (or rejected, but let’s not think about that).
