Thesis protocol in DNB Training: NBE issues Notice highlighting new evaluation process

New Delhi: Thesis submission is an important part of DNB training. National Board of Examinations (NBE) informs that the thesis protocol evaluated by subject matter experts and the outcome of the protocol is thereafter communicated to the concerned candidate.

NBE informs the concerned DNB candidates undergoing DNB training in an accredited hospital that they have to submit his/her thesis protocol to NBE within 3 months of commencement of the DNB training.

In its notice, the NBE stated that from 2019 January admission session, the competent authority of NBE has decided to do away with the evaluation of the thesis protocol at the level of NBE. From now onwards, the concerned NBE accredited hospital shall be required to evaluate the thesis protocol at its own level through Institutional Ethics Committee (IEC) and Scientific Research Committee (SRC) and approve the thesis protocol for carrying out the research work. The constitution of IEC & SRC has to be in accordance with the guidelines prescribed by NBE and are at Annexure 1 & 2 respectively.
