Please note, if you are planning to use DocuSign to secure electronic signatures, you must coordinate with PAU's IT in advance regarding the anticipated number of subjects and cost coverage.

The template is not required (other formats are acceptable), but we recommend you review the template for reference on how to communicate with your potential research subjects. If you do use the template, modify as appropriate for your study and population.
