A research ethics committee must have a number of members covering all aspects related to its functions. Although not specifically mentioned in the legislation, it seems essential that at least one is an expert in biostatistics and research methodology, in order to better defend the interests of research subjects. This paper presents reflections on various situations that are likely to require an analysis that would allow a better understanding of some of the details of the project that has to evaluate the committee, in order to avoid shortages of methodological type, which could have repercussions of ethical type.
