The National Institutes of Health (NIH) guidelines for conducting research in the MOH institutions and facilities and Director General of Health Malaysia’s circular for research conduct can be downloaded here.
Current MOH policy on research, as specified in the guideline, requires:
Registration of all research that involves MOH personnel OR that is to be conducted in MOH facility OR to be funded by MOH research grant
Review & approval of the research by a designated entity to whom authority has been delegated for the purpose
In addition, research involving human subjects requires prior review and approval by the MOH Research and Ethics Committee (MREC)
Approval of all research publications, whether in the form of research report, journal article or conference proceeding, by the NIH initially and thereafter by the Director General of MOH
The NMRR is thus specifically designed to enable:
Online registration of research.
Online submission to an appropriate authority for approval, as well as online review of the submitted research by relevant appointed reviewers.
Online submission of research publication to the NIH for approval
The NMRR also enable MOH management to document the level of research activity in the MOH, and also to track the progress of the research it has approved and/or provided support such as funding.
