No, LARI is not a research ethics committee, ethics review panel, or institutional review board. Thus, LARI does not conduct research ethics reviews. More information on which body is responsible for conducting ethics reviews at your organization and for the research you are performing is available on your institution’s website. If you encounter difficulties finding the relevant information, feel free to contact us and we will do our best to provide you with the information and contacts you are looking for.
While research ethics and research integrity overlap conceptually, they are governed somewhat differently. A useful overview on the relationship between research ethics and research integrity as well as the work of research ethics committees and research integrity offices can be found in the ENERI Manual Research Integrity and Ethics.
