Currently, the Committee for Human-Related Scientific Research (CMWO) or the Medical Ethics Committee has been dissolved. Since we are no longer a competent institute from the ministry, we can no longer process your applications and also not issue statements, advice and / or perform work in the context and extension of scientific research. We therefore refer you to the Minister of Health for the further processing of your requests and protocols.
