After meticulous scrutiny and evaluation of the research proposals, the Technical Committee has provided various recommendations. It has been emphasized that any deviations from the protocol during the study should be promptly communicated to the respective Institutional Ethics Committee (IEC) for approval, as well as to SHSRC-Kerala. Additionally, it is essential that the study reports are submitted to the Government of Kerala, SHSRC, and the Department of Health Services, as per the necessary recommendations outlined by the Technical Committee.
