Mapeamento do processo de submissão de projetos ao Comitê de Ética em Pesquisas da UFRN

Abstract

The objective of this chapter is to describe the process of submitting research projects involving human beings to the Research Ethics Committee (CEP), addressing each stage and the requirements necessary for its processing. For the analysis, the Bizagi Modeler software was used to map the workflows and create visual representations of the process, and the official information made available online by the CEP itself on its website and in regulatory documents was used as the basis for the research. The justification for this research lies in the importance of disseminating this knowledge in an accessible way, helping researchers and other specialists to better understand the required procedures. In addition, it seeks to identify possible bottlenecks that may hinder or delay the progress of submissions, allowing the proposal of improvements that make the process more agile and efficient.
