*In order to be considered at a Board meeting, applications requiring Full Board Review must be received by the Research Ethics Board (ethics@yukonu.ca) at least two weeks prior to the meeting date.

Researchers may be invited to attend a portion of the meeting in order to answer questions or concerns as this facilitates the review and approval process.

**Delegated or Expedited Review

  • Studies that qualify for Delegated/Expedited Review have an approximate turnaround time of 2-3 weeks.
  • These should be minimal risk project reviews. If your study qualifies as minimal risk review, you may submit your application at any time.
  • If a submission for Delegated/Expedited review is referred to the Full Board, the turnaround time will substantially increase.
  • Please contact the REB Coordinator, if you are unsure whether your study qualifies for Delegated/Expedited Review.
