Please note - notifications can only be managed by system administrators.

It is possible to configure automatic notifications for specific events. These email notifications are sent from no-reply@castorsms.com. Email notifications are triggered by events - these can occur within the study flow, study specific events and user related events. Disabled events will not trigger notifications. Events can be disabled via the right mouse click.

Note: The notification ‘Reminder study stop’ will not be sent when the study is in one of the following statuses: New, Presubmitted science board, Presubmission approved, Submitted science board, Denied or No participation.
