Queen’s University is introducing a new ethics review pathway for databases, biobanks, and participant registries. This presentation will walk researchers through what’s changing, why the new pathway was developed, and what is now required when creating or managing databases, biobanks, and registries.

Grounded in the ), the session clarifies what is required under the ethical review, outlines what the research ethics board (REB) does and does not review, and introduces the new dedicated application form. Researchers will also learn when to use the new pathway, how secondary use of data is reviewed, and what to expect for ongoing oversight and renewals.

This session is recommended for researchers who currently have or plan to create databases, biobanks, or registries involving human data or biological materials.
