Unity Health eREB Launched – Mandatory for New Study Submissions

The Unity Health eREB is now mandatory for new study submissions. For information on creating an account and logging in, please see the eREB page.

Existing studies should continue to submit post-approval submissions (amendments, renewals, etc.) to the REB inbox using the current forms. Migration of these studies to the eREB is being piloted; study teams will be contacted to provide the information needed to create eREB records for their studies.

*WHAT’S NEW AT THE REB*

• February 2023: Launched the Unity Health eREB
• May 2022: Created a short guidance on the revised Health Canada document retention period.
• May 2022: Updated the Consent Form Template that includes consent form required elements and suggestions for research at Unity Health.

REMINDER: The Research Ethics Office is not accepting hard copy submissions. Submissions for pre-eREB studies should sent to the REB Inbox (researchethics@unityhealth.to). Send only one form (with related attachments) per email. All communications to the REB Inbox should be sent by the PI or by a research team member with the PI cc’d.
