Community Health Committee  |  Fees

Research studies which receive funding from industry (e.g. pharmaceutical/medical device companies) or other for-profit organizations are charged an administration fee for the initial ethics review. There are no fees for ongoing review activities, nor for the initial review of studies which are unfunded or funded by cooperative groups, internal funds, or grants.

Once the ethics certificate is released (i.e. the study is approved) an invoice will be sent from Alberta Innovates for the amount indicated below (GST will be added if applicable). Please do not send in the administration fee until you receive an invoice.
