I am pleased to announce the appointment of Audel Cunningham as the Chair of the Humber Research Ethics Board (REB).

Audel has more than 20 years of experience in the legal profession and has been a faculty member in the Longo Faculty of Business since 2008. He has made significant contributions to Humber College as a member of the Learning Management System Steering Committee and as a Faculty representative for two successive years on the Humber Showcase Committee.

Through his prior work with the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) and the World Trade Organization, as well as his teaching experience and postgraduate legal studies, he brings a wealth of knowledge to academic and non-academic research. This experience and his service as an REB member since 2018 have provided him with valuable insights into research policies and the legal framework governing research ethics approval in Canada.

Please join me in congratulating Audel on his appointment.  Audel will be sharing duties with our current chair, Lydia Boyko, until the Fall semester when he will take on the role himself.     

Sincerely,

Derek Stockley
Associate Vice-President, Academic
