Members

Protocol Preparation

1. While you may append forms appropriate to your particular Ethics Committee, in order to harmonize the MRRC review process, you are required to submit the "Application for Initial Review for Submission to the REB" available in the table below.听Please do not change the numbering as it appears on the form, and leave the date that appears in the bottom right hand corner of the form as this indicates when the form was updated. All questions must be answered.
   It is imperative that an investigator from The Neuro is associated with the proposed study, particularly for studies originating outside The Neuro. However, it is not required that this individual is the Principal Investigator. The association can be that of an associate on the protocol or a Neuro听physician.
2. Each submission must also include a CONSENT FORM, a DECLARATION OF CONSENT and an MRI QUESTIONNAIRE, in English and French听(also provided听below). At the top of each page of the consent form please include the title of the protocol and the site at which the work will be performed. In the bottom right-hand corner of each page of the consent form the version date of the consent form, i.e. the date on which the form was prepared, must be indicated.
3. All protocols requiring MR scans that have received approval from 麻豆AV's IRB (Institutional Review Board) must still be submitted to the MRRC.
4. Following the meeting of the MRRC, the Principal Investigator will receive a letter with the Committee鈥檚 decision and recommendations, should changes be required.
