Schedule of HREC meetings
Our Human Research Ethics Committees (HRECs) meet regularly throughout the year. Dates may be subject to change.
HREC Research Services will not accept late or incomplete applications.
Due to potential high volume, HREC and Executive meetings will be capped. If the cap is reached, applications will be deferred to the next available meeting.
Please note that new applications can only be reviewed at HREC meetings.
