The Research Ethics Online System (EthOS) was launched on July 25, 2024 for the submission of new study protocols. Please review Getting Started and other resources on this hub before accessing the system.

Closure Alert: The Research Ethics Office and RAIMSsupport@uoguelph.ca team will break for the holiday as of 4:30pm December 20, 2024, returning on 8:30am on January 2, 2025.

Researchers are kindly asked to plan your submissions accordingly as the current 8-10 week approval cycle does not include this break.

If you anticipate needing guidance or technical support, please reach out to RAIMSsupport@uoguelph.ca or attend one of the Tuesday lunch-hour drop-ins between now and the break.

Researchers can consult the Protection of Human Participants home page, Research Ethics FAQs, user materials on the EthOS Hub, and also find these same resources in EthOS under the Help menu.

Reminder: completing the Form Update should be your first step if you are experiencing any technical issues.

EthOS (Ethics Online System) is an easy-to-use online system that helps streamline the submission, review and management of research ethics applications.  Back to the Human Participants home page.
