The Institutional Ethics Committee (IEC) stands as a vigilant guardian, entrusted with the paramount responsibility of upholding the rights, safety, and well-being of individuals engaged in research endeavors. Rooted in the principles of ethical conduct and human dignity, the IEC ensures that research protocols are meticulously scrutinized to prevent any infringement on participant rights or compromise to their physical and emotional welfare.

Comprising diverse experts from various disciplines, the IEC conducts rigorous assessments of research proposals, evaluating their ethical merit, scientific validity, and potential risks. It plays an instrumental role in endorsing research projects that demonstrate adherence to ethical standards, transparent methodologies, and a commitment to minimizing any potential harm. By advocating informed consent, confidentiality, and the principle of beneficence, the IEC provides an ethical compass for researchers to navigate the intricate landscape of human research.
