Research Ethics with Human Participants In-Person / Online

This workshop provides a practical introduction to research ethics involving human participants.  It will cover the foundations of ethical research, the context and requirements of the Tri-Council Policy Statement: Ethical Conduct for Research Involving Humans (TCPS 2), and the steps to completing a successful ethics application at the University of Calgary.

Participants will gain a clear understanding of why research ethics matter and the regulatory context that shapes the review process at UCalgary. The session includes a guided walkthrough of IRISS, the university's online ethics application platform, and tips for preparing your submission.

This session is led by Dr. Adam McCrimmon, Associate Professor and Chair of the University of Calgary's Conjoint Faculties Research Ethics Board (CFREB).
