Research Review Panel
Ensure that Public Health staff are active collaborators on all proposals initiated by external researchers, where appropriate.

The Research Review Panel serves to:
- Ensure that all research involving PHDMC data, staff, or clients supports the mission of PHDMC.
- Ensure that PHDMC staff are active collaborators on all proposals initiated by external researchers, where appropriate.
- Ensure that the Health Commissioner is aware of the findings from these endeavors and their public health implications.
Note: The Research Review Panel does not take the place of an Institutional Review Board (IRB). Research involving human subjects requires the review of the IRB.
