BREB application guidelines and new requirements in time of Covid
In this seminar, I will explain the general principles of the UBC Research Behavioural Ethics Review and will show in practical ways how to fill out the application forms.
First, I will explain the TCPS 2 (tri-council policy statement 2), which gives the Canadian research ethics guidelines, especially key principles and important definitions. I will specify which types of research are exempt of review. After discussing these basic principles, I will discuss how to fill out the application to the Behavioural Research Ethics Board (BREB). In particular, I will give some tips for parts of the application that create some difficulties for the applicants. This part will be a question and answer with a graduate student who is filling out her application at the moment. Furthermore, with the collaboration of another graduate student, we will discuss the supplementary forms and rules during Covid 19. Participants are welcome to ask questions related to BREB.
