The ANU is replacing the ARIES system for the submission, review and approval of human ethics applicaitons.

Details

Monday 31 July

This is the final day to enter human ethics protocols into ARIES 

Researchers and committee members will no longer have access to ARIES to make changes to Human ethics protocols. 

 

Tuesday 8 August

 

REMS is Live for all human ethics 

 

Notes

 

All active human protocols and attachments will be moved into REMS onto a form called the Human Legacy form 

If you have an active protocol, you will only be able to access it in REMS from this date onwards 

All NEW protocols will be completed using a NEW form called the Human Research Ethics Application form (HREA) 

 

For more information on the new REMS system visit the REMS SharePoint site or contact the REMS project team to request access to the sandbox test environment.

The Human Ethics ARIES Manual has quick outlines of the steps to create, edit and submit a protocol in ARIES. Please note that the manual only has basic instructions on a few common areas and is not a substitute for the training video.
