Το EEAB λαμβάνει υπόψη τους πιθανούς κινδύνους και οφέλη για την κοινότητα όπου πρόκειται να διεξαχθεί η έρευνα. Ο απώτερος στόχος του EEAB είναι να υποστηρίξει το Ακαδημαϊκό Συμβούλιο στην προώθηση υψηλών ηθικών και δεοντολογικών προτύπων στην ιατρική έρευνα που διεξάγεται στο Κέντρο Αριστείας. Το EEAB έχει εποπτικό ρόλο στη λειτουργία της Βιοτράπεζας και έχει την αρμοδιότητα να σχολιάζει και να προτείνει τροποποιήσεις στον τρόπο λειτουργίας της.
