Research Ethics Committee
The Research Ethics Committee (REC) is an independent multidisciplinary body of Masaryk University and is a fundamental part of the system that ensures research quality and the observance of research ethics standards at MU.
Every project that involves research on human subjects (including work with biological material of human origin) and requires approval by an ethics committee (When a project must be approved by an ethics committee), must be approved by the MU Research Ethics Committee. The only exception is for projects submitted by the MU Faculty of Medicine (see Ethics at MU).
