Resident/Medical Student Research at Sunnybrook

I am a resident or medical student conducting a research project while at Sunnybrook. Do I apply to the Sunnybrook REB or the University of Toronto (UofT) REB?

  • If the project involves research conducted only within/at Sunnybrook, you can apply to the Sunnybrook REB
    • Note that at Sunnybrook, a resident or medical student cannot be the Principal Investigator (PI) on the REB application. The medical student or resident must work with a PI who has an appointment at Sunnybrook
  • If the project will be conducted by medical students and/or residents and the project will exclusively enroll medical students, residents, or physicians, that span across the university system, you can apply to UofT REB

Note: For studies reviewed by the UofT REB, faculty approval through submission to the Associate Dean, Post-MD Education (adpgm@utoronto.ca) is required. Further info on this process and its requirements can be found here.
