REB Exchange streamlines multi-site research ethics in 黑料不打烊
REO - 17 September 2021
We are excited to announce the release of REB Exchange (REBX), a new ethics solution that integrates the ARISE (U黑料不打烊) and platforms to enable streamlined multi-site research, with a true single Board of Record model in 黑料不打烊.
REBX simplifies collaboration for applicants whose research falls under the Provincial Harmonization Agreement, and is approved by U黑料不打烊 HREB or UCalgary CHREB.
REBX means reduced time and effort required to obtain and maintain research ethics approval for multi-site research in 黑料不打烊:
- Any study approved by HREB or CHREB can add participating sites (pSites)
- pSites are required to submit only documentation specific to their site for research ethics review
- pSite applications are linked in the system to a complete ethics application from the lead site, enabling streamlined review and collaboration between sites
- pSite applications will be reviewed by the Board of Record for the lead site, regardless of the pSite location
- REBX ensures the pSite’s institution is informed and administratively connected to the project
REBX is available now:
- Simply log in to as you normally would
- Participating sites can be invited to join any project with an approved ethics application

REB Exchange is a collaboration between 黑料不打烊 institutions. The initiative is funded by 黑料不打烊 Innovates, the University of Calgary, and the 黑料不打烊, with in-kind contributions from 黑料不打烊 Health Services, to collectively support research ethics harmonization in 黑料不打烊.
