What's New?

Important changes to the REB review process:
Brock now has two Research Ethics Board (REB) panels - the Social Science SREB and the Bioscience BREB. A guide has been added to the standard REB application to help researchers indicate which panel is appropriate for their research. Please visit the Application Forms link above for the most up-to-date forms. Questions about the REB review process at Brock should be directed to the Research Ethics Coordinator, x3035, or email reb@brocku.ca
