The Office of Research Services (ORS) was created in the early 1980s in response to federal government funding of the three research councils: the Natural Science and Engineering Research Council (NSERC), Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC), and the Medical Research Council, which has since been restructured and is known as the Canadian Institutes for Health Research (CIHR). Universities required an official link with the tri-councils to review and administer research grants awarded to faculty on their campuses.

During the tenure of Vice President of Research Martha Crago, the office was renamed Dalhousie Research Services, but the name reverted to ORS shortly after the arrival of her successor, Alice Aikens.

DALHOUSIE UNIVERSITY Dal's Office of Research Services appoints first Indigenous Research Facilitator

Carla DiGiorgio has always been drawn to populations that are overlooked.  

"I have been proud to develop ways to reach out and give voice to those who have not been part of the research or knowledge world," says Dr. DiGiorgio. "This hopefully leads to better action on the part of individuals, cultures, post-secondary institutions and levels of government."

Dr. DiGiorgio has recently been appointed as the first Indigenous Research Facilitator in Dal's Office of Research Services . She will advise on and assist the Dalhousie Indigenous research community (Indigenous researchers and students, and researchers focusing on Indigenous research) with funding applications to internal funding opportunities and external funding agencies, including providing a breadth of supports related to this focus. Dr. DiGiorgio will also provide support in the development of research ethics submissions and develop information sessions for funding opportunities relevant to Indigenous research. "I am happy to be working in an academic environment that values research and brings many different ideas and cultures to the table," says Dr. DiGiorgio. "Dalhousie has many different programs, and with this breadth comes the opportunity to address urban/rural, as well as international/local concerns in all of our faculties and campuses. I look forward to working with great minds as we forge ahead into new areas of research, some of which are as old as time."

The pursuit of knowledge

With a thirty-year career as a professor, community leader and director of research, Dr. DiGiorgio comes to the university with a wealth of experience working in and with Indigenous communities and researchers. She has spearheaded special issues and innovative publications on the topic of Indigenous research, and been the primary and co-investigator on several Indigenous research projects in Canada and internationally. "My stepfather inspired me to become a researcher, as he always supported my mind and my personal and academic work," says Dr. DiGiorgio. "I, like him, love the pursuit of knowledge, and the connection between knowledge, understanding, and people's lives and experiences.    I enjoy supporting others as they find their academic voices and venture into new areas of exploration." Dr. DiGiorgio has also developed programming in Indigenous communities, written and co-written books, chapters and articles and presented on Indigenous issues across the country and internationally.   "I think that perspectives such as indigenous ones have a great deal to contribute to our knowledge and understanding, and being one of the stewards of this process will allow me to support the integration of perspectives across many different disciplines," says Dr. DiGiorgio.  Continues Dr. DiGiorgio, "I have enjoyed leading change that gives voice and action to those not always valued. I feel that my best work has been in supporting others to see the value of their ideas, whether it is through their research and writing, presenting, community work, family and personal work, or self-care." Dr. DiGiorgio officially began her new role with the Office of Research Services on Monday, June 14, 2021. She can be reached at [email protected] . More information about the services offered by the Office of Research Services can be found here .

Rostov-on-Don , city and administrative centre of Rostov oblast (province), southwestern Russia . It lies along the lower Don River , 30 miles (50 km) above the latter’s mouth on the Sea of Azov .

research services dalhousie

The city was founded in 1749 as the customs post of Temernika, when the river mouth was still in Turkish hands. It then became a flourishing trade centre. Between 1761 and 1763 the fortress of St. Dmitry of Rostov was built there, and a town developed around it, near the Armenian settlement of Nakhichevan-na-Donu, which later merged with Rostov. In 1797 town status was granted, and in 1806 it was named Rostov-on-Don. Because of its key position as a transport centre and port, the town grew steadily with the 19th-century Russian colonization and development of the north Caucasus region and conquest of the Transcaucasia .

These functions remain of great importance. The Don River route to the interior was improved by the opening of the Volga-Don Shipping Canal in 1952, linking the town to the entire Volga basin; a dredged channel gives access to the sea. Rostov lies on road, rail, and oil and natural-gas pipeline connections between central European Russia and the Caucasus region. This nodal location and the nearness of the great Donets Coal Basin have led to major industrial development, especially in engineering. Two huge plants make Rostov the largest producer of agricultural machinery in Russia. Other engineering products include ball bearings, electrical and heating equipment, wire, self-propelled barges, road-construction equipment, and industrial machinery. There are ship and locomotive repair yards and a range of consumer-goods industries. Rostov State University was founded in 1917, and there are numerous other institutions of higher education and scientific-research. Pop. (2002) 1,068,267; (2006 est.) 1,054,865.

About rostov-on-don.

Rostov-on-Don is a port city and the administrative centre of Rostov Oblast and the Southern Federal District of Russia. From ancient times, the area around the mouth of the Don River has held cultural and commercial importance. Ancient indigenous inhabitants included the Scythian, Sarmat, and Savromat tribes.

Are you a rostov-on-don kosher establishment or tour operator, jewish history, poi & kosher establishments in rostov-on-don.

Rostov is the capital of Southern Russia, with a population of close to 15,000 Jews. Prior to WWII it was a thriving hub of Jewish life. Tragically, during the war it was also the site of the worst mass execution of Jews in Russia, where over 20,000 Jews perished over the course of two horrific days. Today the community is springing back to life, with one of the most active youth groups in Russia, a Jewish day school, an overnight camp, a dynamic women's club, a busy humanitarian aid service, and new programs every year.

Submission Deadlines

Submissions for research ethics review are accepted at any time, however please note that no reviews are conducted in August . The following deadlines are applied to those projects that require review at a research ethics board meeting . This includes projects that are more than minimal risk, which deal with alterations to consent, vulnerable populations or contexts, dual roles or conflicts of interest, novel methods or projects which the board believes would benefit from contributions of the whole board. Complete submissions must be received no later than 4:00 p.m. 2024

It normally takes about 4 weeks to receive a response from the Research Ethics Board (REB). In many cases, your first response to a new research ethics application will be a review letter in which the REB requests further information or makes recommendations for changes. Re-submissions in response to the initial REB feedback also require ethical review, which takes additional time. It is recommended that you plan at least 8 weeks from submission to approval, and this estimate is highly variable depending on the nature of the project, the quality of the initial ethics submission and the timeliness of communication between the researcher and the REB.

Research at hospitals

Researchers who intend to use IWK Health Centre , Nova Scotia Health Authority or Horizon Health Network facilities or data, or recruit their patients, must contact the ethics offices in these institutions first to determine whether a submission should be made to their research ethics boards, rather than to Dalhousie. Research approved by the research ethics boards at these hospitals does not additionally require Research Ethics Board (REB) approval at Dalhousie. However, research approved by the Dalhousie Research Ethics Board does additionally require REB approval by these institutions.

An electronic copy of the complete submission package (application form and appendices) must be submitted as a single electronic file in MS Word or PDF format. This single file should be named "REB Submission [researcher’s last name]" and submitted by electronic mail attachment to [email protected] .

The submission should come from the lead researcher (PI) at Dalhousie University. Students and post-doctoral fellows must copy their supervisor on the electronic submission.

Applications are accepted any time during office hours . The monthly deadline dates are available above and constitute the deadlines for research requiring review at a board meeting. Please note that no reviews are conducted in August. Submissions must be received by 4:00 p.m. on the deadline day. Incomplete applications will not be reviewed.

What to include A single electronic document that includes finalized copies of:

Prospective Research

Secondary Use of Information for Research

- Reference list

- Permission or support/cooperation letters (e.g. School Board, Director of a long-term care facility, anyone whose cooperation or permission you need to recruit participants or conduct research)

- Research agreements (required for research involving Indigenous communities)

- Recruitment documents (posters, oral scripts, online postings, invitations to participate, etc.)

- Screening documents

- Consent/assent documents or scripts

- Research instruments (questionnaires,  interview or focus group questions, etc.)

- Debriefing and/or study results templates

- List of data fields included in data repository

- Confidentiality agreements

- Reference list

-Steward/Custodian approval, support/cooperation correspondence

- Research agreements (required for research involving Indigenous communities)

- Original and/or new consent documents

- Data capture sheet/list of data fields, variables, survey items

- Flow diagram outlining data collection and linkages

- List of data fields included in data repository

- Data access, data transfer and/or material transfer agreements

 

Complete all sections of the application form. If a section is not relevant to your proposed research, please indicate “not applicable”.

All appendices must be appropriately labelled and included in the order described above. Please number the pages in the submission.

Text must be in a legible font size, normally no smaller than 11 pts. All documents must be submitted in English.

Each application must be submitted as a stand-alone document. Previous submissions may be mentioned, but all required content must be included in the current submission (i.e., do not refer to another submission to provide details needed in this one).

Submission instructions for undergraduate students' thesis research

Undergraduate students must initially submit their application for unit-level review (to get department, school or faculty research ethics approval) prior to submission to the university's Research Ethics Board. Submissions that have received unit-level approval (indicated on section 1.2 of the application form) are eligible for a streamlined review by the Research Ethics Board. The exceptions are research that is more than minimal risk, or where unit-level review is not available, in which case the research ethics application may be submitted directly to the Research Ethics Board.

Course-based (non-thesis) research that is minimal risk may be reviewed and approved at the unit level.

Undergraduate thesis students should only be the named Principal Investigator (lead researcher) on a research ethics file when it is foreseeable that they will complete the full scope of the proposed research during their academic program. In cases where the research may extend past the term of any single student's involvement, the research ethics submission should be made by the faculty supervisor, with student(s) named as other involved study personnel (that can evolve over time). In effect, if the lab is doing the research rather than the individual student, the supervising faculty member should be the Principal Investigator on the research ethics submission responsible for the ethical conduct of the research. In the event that a student is named as Principal Investigator (PI), and that student does not complete the full scope of the research by program completion, the supervising faculty member may, normally with the student PI's written agreement, take over as Principal Investigator for the project. Researchers are responsible for considering the scholarly integrity issues related to such a change, such as ownership of data. An electronic copy of the complete submission package (application form and appendices) must be submitted as a single electronic file in MS Word or PDF format. This single file should be named "REB Submission [researcher’s last name]" and submitted by electronic mail attachment to [email protected] .

All appendices must be appropriately labelled and included in the order described above. Please number the pages in your submission.
