Research Ethics Board (REB)

Our Research Ethics Board (REB) evaluates all research projects conducted within the Hôpital Montfort organization and infrastructures or involving its clientele. Our REB is an independent committee. It operates free of any influence or authority by any administrative or decision-making bodies governing the clinical or research activities of Hôpital Montfort.

Our mandate is to promote research projects that respect and are protective of the dignity of participants, while contributing to the advancement of science. The purpose of an ethics review is to ensure that all research projects carried out in the hospital meet with the standards of ethics recognized by the 2^nd edition of the Tri-Council Policy Statement (TCPS 2).
