Low-risk reviews can be submitted at any time; the below QMERC meeting deadlines are only applicable to moderate and high-risk studies which require Panel Review. When submitting applications for Panel Review, please note that meeting slots fill quickly and applications submitted close to the deadline may have to wait until the following meeting.

All Review Panel meetings will involve a research ethics review of applications submitted. The Main QMERC Committee is concerned with discussing matters of policy as well as research that is complex, unusual or high-risk.
