  Email correspondence in VICH GCP studies. We normally sign and date all correspondence including emails. It has recently been questioned whether there is a need to sign and date these emails as each email has a record of the date/time, author and to whom it was sent to. I would like to know what is the standard practice used by others. Thank you.

  I would always advise signing and dating print out of study related e-mail correspondence. E-mail is open to intentional and unintentional manipulations, potentially fraud. As QA there is a requirement to see responsibility taken for the authentication of the original posting to the recipient. Regards, Iain
