Ethics committees advise researchers on ethical issues relating to their research. For example, whether the research meets the criteria for ethically responsible conduct. There are a number of ethics committees within Leiden University.

All research performed in the Leiden University Faculty of Social and Behavioural Sciences is ethically reviewed by 1 of 3 ethical review committees.
