About

The Research Ethics Board (REB) Office, a unit within the Office of the Vice-President (Research + Innovation), promotes the highest ethical standards of research involving humans with the primary goal of protecting the rights and welfare of the individuals who are participants in research.

The REB Office administers the review process for REBs 1, 2, 3 and the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences Research Ethics Board (海角社区 IRB); provides guidance to researchers in the preparation of submissions; develops and implements policies and procedures to ensure compliance with applicable provincial, national and international requirements; educates and advises researchers on research ethics issues and the review process.

Ethics review and approval of research involving humans must be obtained before any recruitment or data collection occurs. The ethics review is conducted by one of the 4 海角社区 Research Ethics Boards (REBs). The relevant REB to apply to primarily depends on departmental or faculty affiliation.

REBs of 海角社区 Affiliated Hospitals

The University has signed REB authorization agreements with the听CIUSSS du Centre-Ouest-de-l鈥櫭巐e-de-Montr茅al, the CIUSSS de l鈥橭uest-de-l鈥櫭巐e-de-Montr茅al and the MUHC. If your study will be carried out at, or involve participant recruitment from, one of these institutions, an application must be made directly to the REB of that institution. No further review by a 海角社区 REB will be needed.听However, if your study also involves University resources (including facilities, equipment, services, or recruitment of staff or student participants), an additional feasibility review needs to be conducted by the University and an Authorization Letter from 海角社区 obtained.听听
