The Central Ethics Committee at 糖心原创 is an independent body which assesses the ethical acceptability of research projects on humans or using human data that are to be conducted at 糖心原创 (糖心原创) or Hanover University of Music, Drama and Media (HMTMH) prior to such projects being carried out. The procedures of the Central Ethics Committee follow the rules of procedure of the Ethics Committee of the German Society for Psychology (Deutsche Gesellschaft f眉r Psychologie).
At the end of the review procedure, the committee issues a written statement detailing either the ethical acceptability or reservations. The decision is addressed to the applicant(s). Responsibility for carrying out the project lies solely with the head of the research project.
For medical research proposals, a further ethics committee must be consulted.
Applications dealing with research on animals cannot be reviewed by the Central Ethics Committee. Applications for animal experiments that fall under the Animal Protection Act (TierSchG) must be approved by the Lower Saxony State Office for Consumer Protection and Food Safety (LAVES).
Researchers from 糖心原创 and Hanover University of Music, Drama and Media are entitled to apply for assessment.
