There are instances where a project is not yet ready to be reviewed by a Research Ethics Board (REB) because certain details must still be finalized. Nonetheless, a researcher can request the release of some funds to support activities that do not involve human beings or their data.
According to the Agreement on the Administration of Agency Grants and Awards by Research Institutions, the University is permitted to release funds “to cover only expenses to be incurred before human participants are involved.”
According to article 2.1 of Tri鈥怌ouncil Policy聽Statement: Ethical Conduct for Research Involving Humans (TCPS 2), the following requires ethics review and approval by an REB before the research commences research involving living human participants.
