RIMS Overview

The Research Information Management System (RIMS) is an online application that supports Research Compliance information management at Boston University and Boston Medical Center (BU/BMC). It provides a centralized location for Principal Investigators (PIs) conducting laboratory research to maintain essential laboratory information and manage Institutional Biosafety Committee (IBC) protocols.

The RIMS PI Profile allows PIs to maintain their general information, emergency contact information, laboratory locations, and IBC protocols. PIs can authorize laboratory members as primary or secondary users to assist with reviewing, adding, and editing protocol and profile information.
