Institutional
Ethics
Committee
All thesis plans for Ph.D./M.D./M.S./DM/M.Ch. degrees of the institute, as also
all research proposals submitted require clearance from the Ethics Committee of
the Institute. All the research projects incorporate a section titled “Ethical
justification”, for undertaking proposed investigative procedure/therapeutic
intervention. Ethics Committee scrutinises and suggests suitable modifications.
All clinical trials of new drugs, new actions of existing drugs, and new
invasive clinical procedures come under the purview of this Committee. This
committee ensures actual implementation of the ethical guidelines and its
specific recommendations during conduct of clinical studies. The clearance from
committee is necessary even for projects that have been cleared by other
institutions/agencies. For research on living animals, the Committee considers
the possible clinical potential or substantial advance in knowledge from the
proposed animal experiments.
