Education
Research Services at Horizon is committed to building research excellence by providing research education programs and mentorship to novice research groups. Education and training of all those involved in research is the key to ensuring research is conducted with the highest ethical and research standards to ensure protection of research subjects which is fundamental to all research involving humans. We provide and coordinate training for our researchers and teams. As well, mentorship is available for help with REB applications and Informed Consent training, and development of Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs).
