The submission instructions posted on the web site suggest that I qualify for Expedited Review. Does this mean that my proposal will be reviewed and approved more quickly?
Not necessarily. If in fact your proposal is determined to be expedited, this does not mean that your submission will be processed more quickly. It merely means that you proposal is required to be reviewed by only one or two reviewers instead of the entire committee; research is generally of minimal risk to study participants.
