Ethics Advisors and Drop-In Sessions

There are a number of options available for researchers seeking ethics support.  In particular, researchers submitting to the HREC for the first time are encouraged to reach out for guidance and support.  If you would like help writing an application, are seeking general ethics advice or have any queries about the human ethics process, you can:

• Attend a human ethics drop-in session
• Contact an Ethics Officer on uow-humanethics@uow.edu.au
• Approach an Ethics Advisor in your Faculty

UOW Ethics drop-in consultation sessions

Drop-in consultations are currently not available, please contact the Research Integrity Development and Ethics Unit at
uow-humanethics@uow.edu.au if you require further assistance.

UOW Ethics Advisors

Researchers are also able to discuss applications with a faculty Ethics Advisor before submitting to the Ethics Committee. As in the Ethics Office drop-in sessions, the advisor can show you where information is missing, identify aspects of your proposal that may raise ethical concerns, and help you put together an application that can be reviewed quickly. If there is no Advisor for your faculty, approach an advisor who you think may be familiar with your area. For student researchers, please ensure you have worked through your application with your supervisor before contacting an Ethics Advisor for support.
