Reviewing and Approving Research at the ADHB |
|
With respect to reviewing and approving research for quality and scientific rigor, research will need to at a minimum, demonstrate the following characteristics: |
- evidence of scientific rigor and sound/innovative practice [includes evidence of previous scientific assessment (i.e. AMRF, HRC, Collaborative Groups)];
- consistent with ADHB policy, goals and objectives; (ADHB internal only)
- complies with any current regulations, standards, guidelines, statutes and all ethics approval processes;
- complies with ADHB management approval processes;
- has an appropriate budget and costing for undertaking the research [including indirect costs].
|
|
All research is reviewed by the RRC using the appropriate application forms and accompanied by a full budget and other supportive documentation as described above. The RRC meet on a monthly basis and the Committee’s decision and feedback will be forwarded to the investigator within two working days after each meeting. If small changes are required the researcher can make these changes and submit them to the Research Office who will respond within 2 working days.
