KFSHRC : Where Ethical Innovation Meets Healthcare Excellence

Research Ethics Committee ensures adherence to international standards and safeguards participant rights

King Faisal Specialist Hospital & Research Centre (KFSHRC) continues to lead the way in ethical medical innovation. Committed to groundbreaking research and compassionate patient care, KFSHRC ensures that emerging technologies like AI and CRISPR are responsibly integrated. Rigorous ethical frameworks prioritize transparency, accountability, and patient welfare.
