The ESTR system will be integrated with a new tool for submission and review of Data Use Agreement (DUA)* requests. This is the first phase of a multi-year initiative to improve research compliance systems at Harvard.

ESTR will be unavailable on Friday, December 7 from 6:00 pm ET through 11:30 pm ET.  Following this update, navigation will be linked between ESTR-IRB and the new Agreements-DUA systems.  View the detailed release notes to lean about specific changes expected with this update.

Please contact the ESTR Help Desk with any questions or concerns.

* A Data Use Agreement (DUA) is a binding contract between organizations governing the transfer and use of data. DUA terms and conditions vary depending on the laws and regulations governing the particular type of data as well as the policies and/or requirements of the Provider. A DUA must be signed by a Harvard Institutional Signatory.
