Recruitment

The Mount Sinai Hospital Research Ethics Board (REB) is recruiting new members for a renewable two-year term involving a three-four hour commitment per month. The Board has reviewed over 7,000 new research studies in the past 20 years, and with the increased emphasis on research in an environment of increased competition and new regulatory demands, the need for high quality ethical review of proposed research has never been more important. Increasingly these studies require full board review because of their complexity and risk.

We need staff physicians, research fellows, nurses, pharmacists, clinical research staff, and epidemiologists. All specialties are invited. While it is helpful to have members who are knowledgeable in research, it is just as important to have members who are primarily clinicians. The REB members are critical to the success of research with human participants so that Sinai Health can continue to provide its patients with the best medicine through translational research.

If you or your staff are interested in serving as a board member of the Mount Sinai Hospital Research Ethics Board, please contact the REB Office at 416-586-4875, or email Nushrat Sultana at [email protected], or Kathleen Austin at [email protected].
