What We Do
As part of the BC Academic Health Science Network, we support a province-wide, harmonized system for research ethics reviews of studies conducted in multiple geographic areas involving the resources, people, patients or data from more than one BC research institution. Find out more about us.

- University of British Columbia, Simon Fraser University, University of Northern BC, University of Victoria, Langara College, British Columbia Institute of Technology, Thompson Rivers University, Kwantlen Polytechnic University, Camosun College
- Island Health, Vancouver Coastal Health, Fraser Health, Northern Health, Interior Health, First Nations Health Authority
- BC Cancer, BC Children's Hospital, BC Women's Hospital, Providence Health Care
