Welcome to the REPO Portal
The Research Ethics and Publication Office (REPO) Portal is Ethiopia’s trusted platform for managing Institutional Review Board (IRB) protocols. It ensures ethical compliance, transparency, and efficient handling of research submissions.
Our Objective
To provide a centralized, secure, and accessible system that supports researchers and reviewers in submitting, evaluating, and approving IRB protocols, while upholding the highest standards of research ethics.
Procedure
- Researchers submit IRB protocols through the portal using standardized naming conventions for clarity and consistency.
- Protocols are reviewed on a bi‑monthly schedule to ensure timely feedback.
- All reviews are conducted free of charge to support equitable access.
- Reviews are blinded, ensuring impartiality and fairness in evaluation.
- The review board is composed of members from diverse areas of expertise, guaranteeing comprehensive ethical oversight.
- Data is managed with secure systems to protect confidentiality and integrity.
- The process is designed for a fast and efficient review cycle.
__FAQ
በተደጋጋሚ የሚጠየቁ ጥያቄዎች
Can student projects be reviewed?
Yes. The supervising PI submits or co-signs the protocol, and training certificates are required for all team members.
How do users login?
Users create an account either by registering with their personal and or institutional details via google or system itself. Once verified, they can log in securely to access the portal.
How to submit a protocol?
Researchers upload their IRB protocol and all other required documents through the portal using the standard naming format. The submission is stored securely and scheduled for bi‑weekly review.
How to submit a complaint?
Complaints can be filed directly in the portal through the complaint submission form. All entries are confidential and handled promptly by the ethics office.
How to submit a progress report?
Researchers submit progress reports via their protocol dashboard. Reports are linked to the original protocol and reviewed by the board to ensure compliance.
How to submit a continuation report?
Continuation reports are submitted before the protocol’s expiry date. A researcher can find a request form at right side of the protocol's detail page. This ensures ongoing approval and ethical oversight for long‑term studies.
How to start a discussion with the IRB secretary?
Users can initiate a secure discussion through the portal’s messaging system associated to the protocol under the DISCUSSION section. The IRB secretary responds to queries, clarifications, and guidance requests.
Do I need IRB for secondary data analysis?
If the dataset is identifiable or re-identifiable, IRB review is required. Seek an exemption determination when in doubt.
How are multilingual consent forms handled?
Provide versions in languages used by participants. Ensure consistency across translations and back-translate when needed.
What if my study involves international collaborators?
Include collaboration agreements and DTA/MTA. Obtain local and partner-site approvals as required before data/specimen transfer.
