Ethics Committee

Ethics Committee

The Ethics Committee aims to ensure compliance with and promote standards of integrity, honesty and technical quality in the activities of the Organic Units and Research Units and Centres, in order to protect and guarantee the dignity and integrity of the human person at the various stages of its constitution and development.

The Ethics Committee comprises a multidisciplinary team consisting of eleven members: a President, a Vice-President and nine members.

The Ethics Committee is responsible for analysing ethical issues relating to the activities, responsibilities, and internal and external relations of the units that comprise UPB, as well as the conduct of their members, particularly in matters concerning teaching, research, outreach activities, or other academic activities that may be of general interest to UPB. The Ethics Committee is also responsible for issuing opinions on the ethical aspects of research work, particularly research involving, in any form, human participants, animals, or biological material.

Promoting reflection and the dissemination of aspects related to ethics within the scope of scientific research activities, through the most appropriate means, namely studies and/or scientific activities, is one of the objectives of this committee.
