Why are there so many of the same review comment?
The Novelution system requires a review comment be entered by the administrator when indicating modifications are required for designated member review.
This means each time the protocol goes back and forth between the reviewers and the PI, an additional comment will be added. It’s usually something to the effect of “Modifications needed.”
In addition to this comment from the administrator, often each of the reviewers will add a similar comment, because the Novelution system requires a comment be added.
These comments do not need to be specifically addressed, only the substantive comments left by the reviewers.
Keep in mind you may respond to the review comments in the Review Comments conversation portion, but you are also required to add any additional substantive information to the corresponding area of the protocol to officially add it. The protocol cannot be approved without doing this.
