Abstract
This questionnaire-based study was conducted to collect information on the ethics review practices of research institutions in Thailand. One hundred and sixty-five out of 295 responses were received from institutions under the ministry of public health and 79 were received from 146 sent to academic institutions. Of these responses 114 and 64, respectively, reported conducting research involving human subjects. Thirty-four institutions in each group had ethics review committees. Key findings are summarised and suggest that many institutions are unable to follow practices such as ensuring independence of the ethics committee, including ethicists and community members, and monitoring research practice including the response to serious adverse events. The majority of respondents felt the need for a national research ethics review body for research involving human subjects.
