Methods and Materials: This descriptive survey has carried out in Iran and Japan during 2002-2003. The questionnaires containing close and open-ended questions were sent to the ethics review committees (ECs).

Results: In Iran, 35 ECs have been retrieved questionnaire (a response rate of 46%) but only 19 of them had ESR projects. In Japan, twenty two ECs have been replied (a response rate of 25%) which include seventeen ECs in public and five private universities.
