Whenever you involve human participants in your research project, you need approval for your activities from the Humber Research Ethics Board. The Humber Research Ethics Board (REB) reviews all research involving human participants that takes place within the Humber community. The REB ensures that all research involving human participants aligns with the standards set by the Tri-Council Policy Statement: Ethical Conduct for Research Involving Humans (TCPS). If your research involves human participants in any capacity, you need to apply to the REB for ethics approval. All applications must be reviewed and approved by the REB before research begins.
The submission deadline for the month of March is fast approaching. Please see below for the upcoming submission deadlines.
