The DYPIU ethical committee is formulated with a motto of protecting the safety,
well-being and legal rights of all participants and ensuring adherence to the
highest ethical standards for human research. The committee provides approval
for research based on ICMR guidelines and international standards such as the
Council for International Organizations of Medical Sciences (CIOMS), and Good
Clinical Practice (GCP). The ethical committee's role is to make sure Human
participants' risks are appropriately controlled and that the risk-benefit ratio
is managed well. The body provides approval by considering factors like values
of research, target group and vulnerability, informed consent from participants,
competency of the professionals involved in the research, whether the privacy
and confidentiality of data is maintained and also if there is any conflict of
interest. Moreover, the role of the body not only ends in the protection of
human subjects, the risks and benefits of research and its impact in the society
will be assessed. The committee keeps record of the ongoing studies and the
study performed in the last three years.
