Bond University

Logo for Bond University

Bond University has a Human Research Ethics Committee (HREC) composed of volunteers and administered by a small secretariat. Bond University HREC operates in accordance with the National Statement on Ethical Conduct in Human Research 2023 (National Statement).

Members of Bond University HREC fulfil a vital role in research. The purpose is to provide ethical oversite on the conduct of research involving human participants ensuring all research submitted for review is designed with respect for participants and is not compromised by the aims of the research, by the way it is carried out, or by the results.

Members are asked to consider research against international and national guidelines on ethical research conduct, and on the basis of their own knowledge, qualities and experience and not as representatives of any organisation, group or decision.

Bond University HREC is seeking those interested in the following categories of membership:

A Qualified Lawyer, who may or may not be practicing, and who have no affiliation with the institution; 3. A person with knowledge and current experience in the professional care or treatment of people, for example, Allied Health Professional, Nurse, Counsellor. *
