A valid ethics approval is not only needed for interventional clinical trials in Switzerland, but also for observational studies. This seminar session will provide information about participant information and consent for different types of projects, where and how to hand in your dossier, and will give insights about the decision processes and views of the ethics committees. After a short presentation, there will be plenty of time for questions from you as researchers.
This seminar session is part of a lunch seminar series, which offers brief overviews and room for questions on important topics related to observational studies (HRO projects).
