Abstract
In 1985 the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) made its grants for medical research conditional on the receiving institution submitting all human research, whether or not medical and whether or not funded by the NHMRC, for eth- ics review (NHMRC 2007). However, this NHMRC-induced extension of ethics review to non-medical projects retained the established conceptualisation of research as health and clinical. Over the next two decades, institutions expanded the jurisdic- tion of their ethics review committees to include methods like ethnography and oral history.
