University research ethics committees

Eight volunteer lay members serve on Oxford University's Research Ethics Committees; they are either members of committees that review the ethics of proposals for research involving human participants or personal data, or they serve on the central committee with responsibility for policy relating to that review. Each committee meets at least three times a year in Oxford (travel expenses are refundable), and reviews matters by correspondence between meetings. If you are interested in receiving information about future vacancies, please contact the Secretary of the Central University Research Ethics Committee by email: curec@admin.ox.ac.uk.
