Q: Your website indicates that I need ethics approval before I can receive my funds, but I can’t design the research portion of my project until the pilot phase is over. Will you release some money initially for development, with the rest held until I can secure full approval?

A: Pre-approval funds release requires approval from the Office of Research Ethics. Please consult the ORE for guidance on the process for applying for a pre-approval release of funds. If you have applied for pre-release, you must indicate this in your application; please specify the amount requested for initial release and provide a timeline for future approval.
