Forms and Guidelines

Copies of initial applications and all ongoing submissions must be submitted to WOHSREB@williamoslerhs.ca. For studies requiring full board review, the complete application package must be submitted at least two weeks prior to a REB meeting date.

Please note: The revised Tri-Council Policy Statement: Ethical Conduct for Research Involving Humans (TCPS2 2022) has been released.

This update includes new guidance on broad consent, human totipotent stem cells, human cell lines and streamlining multi-jurisdictional ethics review for minimal risk research. A summary of all the changes to the TCPS 2 can be found in the new release.

The Osler REB is currently reviewing our policies, procedures and templates in light of this new guidance and will be communicating the related changes soon. Please feel free to contact the Osler REB  with any questions.
