About the Research Review Office
The Research Review Office (RRO) is the gateway for researchers operating within the CIUSSS du Centre-Ouest-de-l'Île-de-Montréal as it pertains scientific, ethical and institutional feasibility of their projects in order to carry out research in its sites and/or in other establishments of the Health and Social Services Network.
The RRO provides support for the Science Committee and the Research Ethics Board. It also coordinates the review of institutional feasibility, and ensures liaison and coordination with the Mandated Person by the establishment (MP) to authorize research.
It supports the recruitment and mobilization of REB (Research Ethics Board) members, the conduct of their meetings and works with research teams in the preparation of their projects for evaluation.
The RRO also offers training, specifically on the Nagano platform (the platform for submitting research projects for review) for research teams and members of research ethics committees.
