Research Ethics Committee

RESEARCH ETHICS COMMITTEE

In order to ensure that research conducted at LMTA complies with the ethics of scientific and artistic research, a Compliance with the Ethics of Scientific and Artistic Research Committee has been established:

  • Assoc. Prof. Dr. Agnė Jurgaitytė-Avižinienė (Chair)

  • Prof. Dr. Rūta Girdzijauskienė

  • Assoc. Prof. Dr. Linas Balandis

  • Dr. Božena Čiurlionienė

LMTA researchers whose planned scientific and/or artistic research involves human and/or animal participants must apply to the Committee for the compliance assessment before the start of the research.
The Committee evaluates only research projects that have not yet begun with regard to their compliance with the ethics of scientific and artistic research.
The Committee does not assess the quality of scientific or artistic research, only its compliance with requirements.
