Submission Requirements
Scientific Peer Review
Studies that have not received a scientific/peer review either by a granting听agency, a cooperative group or an independent peer-review committee must receive a scientific/peer review prior to submission to the 成人VR视频 IRB. The completed Scientific/Peer Review Form must accompany the submission or, in the case of an agency-reviewed study, a copy of the agency鈥檚 scientific review or reviewer鈥檚 comments. Master and Doctoral students must submit the scientific review completed and approved by their Advisory Committee (See Section 8 of the Scientific/Peer Review Form).
Mandatory Human Research Ethics Training
All 成人VR视频 faculty, students, postdocs, residents and staff who will engage in research that involves human subjects must complete research ethics training prior to submitting an application for ethics review. This requirement can be fulfilled by completing the Tri-Council Policy Statement 2 (TCPS2) Course on Research Ethics (CORE). If you have completed the MSSS or NIH tutorial, or other recognized research ethics training program, please include a copy of the certificate with the submission package.
The CORE tutorial is available in English and French on the TCPS2 website: . Create an account and select 成人VR视频 as your institution and use your 成人VR视频 email address. If you have already completed the CORE tutorial with another institution, you can change your profile information to 成人VR视频 by logging onto the tutorial and modifying your Account Details to revise your institutional affiliation and email address. The 成人VR视频 IRB will verify completion of your training through the CORE program, or you can include a copy of your certificate with the submission package.
