Multi-Centre Research
Guidelines for multi-centre ethics review were implemented by the Minist猫re de la Sant茅 et des Services sociaux (MSSS) on February 1, 2015.听 Any research project that is conducted at more than one public institution in the network (R茅seau de la Sant茅 et des Services sociaux - RSSS) must be reviewed by a research ethics board in the RSSS.听 Please see MSSS Framework for Multi-Centre Review for procedures.
Since the University is not a partner to the MSSS multi-centre review process, an additional University ethics review will听be required for research that involves human subjects conducted by McGill faculty, students, residents, postdocs and staff that was reviewed by an MSSS REB other than the McGill affiliated hospital REBs (see above). Researchers are advised to contact the McGill IRB office to verify whether an additional ethics review is required.
