Guidance for Ethics Reviewers
A quick-reference guide providing an introduction for new ethics reviewers is available below along with a more detailed guidance fact-sheet [the annex to this provides advice on what issues to look out for when reviewing a research ethics application].
Quick reference guide for new ethics reviewers
To the right can be found:
1. The University's standard form for making comments on a University research ethics application form (the 'comments form' is then sent to your department's Ethics Administrator);
2. Training material: In the 2007/8 and 2009/10 academic years the UREC delivered a number of training workshops for ethics reviewers. Information on the workshops (e.g. final reports, which include case studies reviewed + the key points made on them by ethics reviewers who attended the workshops) is available on the right.
