Who is this for?

This guide is designed to provide new researchers and clinical trial staff with an overview of the Ethics and Research Governance processes for clinical trials conducted in public health organisations in NSW.

While the guide primarily addresses clinical trials, much of the information is also useful for other types of health research involving human participants.

This guide focuses on the health organisations within Sydney Health Partners (Nepean Blue Mountains, Northern Sydney, Sydney, and Western Sydney Local Health Districts, and the Sydney Children’s Hospitals Network) but may also be relevant for other NSW health organisations.
