The University of British Columbia (UBC) had "indefensible" deficiencies with reviews of 523 research projects approved before mid 2001 by an "overwhelmed" and underfunded ethics panel that resulted in the university "more or less" allowing investigators "to do their own ethics review," according to a review made partially available last week. Such problems with oversight, two ethics experts said, are likely widespread right across the country.
