Planning Ahead – A Reminder (Staff & PGRs)
Projects which are ‘above minimal risk’
If you’re hoping to start data collection activities at the beginning of September and are in the process of completing your research ethics checklist, please remember that during August there are NO Research Ethics Panel Meetings. If you want to start your data collection activity in August/September, please submit your checklist in time for final Panel meetings to be held in July. Checklists received during August which need to be reviewed by full Panel will be deferred until September (dates to be advised).
Projects which are ‘below minimal risk’
Reviews for low risk projects (Staff and Postgraduate Research) will continue as normal during August.
More details about the review process and Panel meeting dates can be found on the Research Ethics Blog. Email enquiries should be sent to researchethics@bournemouth.ac.uk.
