Basic biomedical research and clinical trials have been the means of understanding disease and discovery of effective treatments. While research science is portrayed as an objective, empirical field, it too is confronted with specific ethical issues and dilemmas. Yet medical and scientific research at times in its history has not always reflected a genuine concern for the principled research and particularly a commitment to the protection of human subjects. Building on such foundation documents as the Nuremberg Code, the Declaration of Helsinki, and the Belmont Report, modern research ethics emphasizes the importance of human subjects research protections in the an increasingly complex research environment spanning all areas of biomedical and biotechnological research and beyond, as well as the increasingly international and global nature of such research endeavors. Relevant issues to research ethics include among others: global and national governance, privacy, scientific integrity, ...

The continuous evolution of internet and related social media technologies and platforms have opened up vast new means for communication, socialization, expression, and collaboration. They also have provided new resources for researchers seeking to explore, observe, and measure human opinions, activities, and interactions. However, those using the internet and social media for research - and those tasked with facilitating and monitoring ethical research such as ethical review boards - are confronted with a continuously expanding set of ethical dilemmas. Internet Research Ethics for the Social Age: New Challenges, Cases, and Contexts directly engages with these discussions and debates, and stimulates new ways to think about - and work towards resolving - the novel ethical dilemmas we face as internet and social media-based research continues to evolve. The chapters in this book - from an esteemed collection of global scholars and researchers - offer extensive reflection about current internet ...

Perhaps Hwang and his team are a bit reluctant because they already know beforehand that it is physically and scientifically impossible that these stem cells from cloned human embryos really match the patients into whom they were injected? What about addressing the other ethical requirements of the Declaration of Helsinki and the Nuremberg Code - e.g., the fact that patients should understand that the research being performed is not standard medical care, that the good of the patient involved outweighs that of society or science, that patients must give ethically and legally valid informed consent to participate, as well as various other ethical obligations of others directly complicit in this research. One wonders why the international press doesnt include some of these international research ethics requirements in their investigative reporting.

How and why does a given social value come to shape the way an individual thinks, feels,and acts in a specific social situation? This study links ideas from Goffmans frame analysis to other lines of research, proposing that dramatic narratives of variable content, vividness,and language-in-use produce variation in the accessibility of schematic, internal cultural frameworks, and, thereby, variation in the social value frames that gain situational primacy. Hypotheses derived from the argument are experimentally supported, and results encourage further research on the process of social value framing, which operates as a person crosses oundaries in the complex subcultural mosaic. ...
Tatyana Dumova, Ph.D., professor in the School of Communication, served as an international grant review expert for the Netherlands Organization for Health Research and Development (ZonMw) on issues of quality and integrity in scientific research.

BACKGROUND: Cluster randomized trials are an increasingly important methodological tool in health research. In cluster randomized trials, intact social units or groups of individuals, such as medical practices, schools, or entire communities--rather than individual themselves--are randomly allocated to intervention or control conditions, while outcomes are then observed on individual cluster members. The substantial methodological differences between cluster randomized trials and conventional randomized trials pose serious challenges to the current conceptual framework for research ethics. The ethical implications of randomizing groups rather than individuals are not addressed in current research ethics guidelines, nor have they even been thoroughly explored. The main objectives of this research are to: (1) identify ethical issues arising in cluster trials and learn how they are currently being addressed; (2) understand how ethics reviews of cluster trials are carried out in different countries (Canada,

Published in Science, McGills Jonathan Kimmelman and Benjamin Carlisle and CMUs Alex John London argue that current research ethics frameworks do not flag drug trials that, while not putting patients at risk, produce biased evidence. As an example, they point to phase IV research - when pharmaceutical companies test drugs and devices that have been approved for marketing. They insist that without an adequate system of checks in place, phase IV trials will continue to be used by drug companies to market products without generating the information that clinicians and policy makers can use to improve care and maintain a more cost-effective health system.. Rigorously designed and executed research has a critical role in improving patient care and restraining ballooning healthcare costs, said Kimmelman, associate professor of biomedical ethics. There is currently a push to streamline the ethical review of research. In this process, oversight systems should be empowered to separate scientific ...
Subjects. The infants in this study were recruited through the Public Health Division, Capital Health Authority (Edmonton, Alberta). All of the infants were born at term. Ethical approval was obtained through the Health Research Ethics Board, University of Alberta and the Capital Health Authority (Edmonton, Alberta). Thirty-seven infants aged from 5 to 13 months (mean, 8.4 months) were studied. None of the infants could walk independently. The infants stepping ability was discussed with a parent. Only those infants who showed 10 consecutive steps at a time, as reported by a parent, were brought in for the experiment. The parent was instructed to practice stepping with the infants for 1-2 min daily for ∼1-2 weeks before the experiment. Previous work has shown practice improves our chances of obtaining good stepping (Yang et al., 1998). Informed and written consent was obtained from a parent before the infant participated in the study. The experiments were conducted in accordance with the ...

A paper documenting the cases will be published March 16 in The New England Journal of Medicine.. The article is a call to awareness for patients, physicians and regulatory agencies of the risks of this kind of minimally regulated, patient-funded research, said Jeffrey Goldberg, MD, PhD, professor and chair of ophthalmology at the Stanford University School of Medicine and co-author of the paper.. The three patients - all women, ranging in age from 72 to 88 - suffered from macular degeneration, a common, progressive disease of the retina that leads to loss of vision. Before the surgery, the vision in their eyes ranged from 20/30 to 20/200. Now, the patients are likely to remain blind, said co-author Thomas Albini, MD, an associate professor of clinical ophthalmology at the University of Miami, where two of the patients were subsequently treated for complications from the stem cell treatments. Although I cant say its impossible, its extremely unlikely they would regain vision.. Appealing ...
Just this week, Lisas son spotted a pair of young brothers on the street near their home in Bushwick. He turned to his mom with pleading eyes.. When am I going to get a brother? asked Daniel.. The 5-year-old kindergartener wants nothing more than a little brother with whom he can share his bedroom, go to soccer games and support his beloved Boston Red Sox.. Normally Lisa, who has struggled with infertility issues for nine years, would shrug. (Names have been changed for privacy reasons.) But this time, she could dare to hope.. The 37-year-old actress is so desperate to have another son, she is ready to trade her one female embryo - the last embryo she has remaining after multiple rounds of IVF - for the male embryo of a stranger.. Im doing this for my son, she told The Post. My husband grew up with sisters and wants a boy too. This is the way we want to complete our family.. Last Wednesday, Lisa took drastic action, sitting down at her computer and writing a message: Hello, we have been ...

Listen to Mirkos take on the different perceptions and susceptibilities of the Swedish public regarding antibiotic resistance, below or on the AMR Studio website. ...
In this article, the authors drew from the epistemological and methodological considerations of neighboring social science fields (i.e., counseling psychology, education, sociology, and womens studies), which suggest a reevaluation of reflexive research practice(s). In discussing the implications this reevaluation may have for future sport management research, the authors contend that such dialogue may encourage scholars to understand that, while adopting a reflexive approach is good research practice, it may also mean taking a closer look at how our biases, epistemologies, identities, and values are shaped by whiteness and dominant ways of knowing and, in turn, serve to affect our research practice. Thus, this may allow all researchers, with explicit consideration for those in positions of conceptual, empirical, and methodological, as well as cultural and racial, power, to acknowledge and work toward a more meaningful point of consciousness in conducting sport management research. ...

Trained facilitators operate within schools to provide the principal and faculty with professional development in the following key areas:. *the overall organization and integration of the schools educational program, especially as it relates to Jewish, Zionist, and social values; *the creation of diverse methods of study and instruction, with an emphasis on beit midrash and dialogue-based frameworks; *the development of a relevant, experience-based curriculum that also stresses the importance of action;. *the empowerment of school leadership teams, which include principals, faculty, and students.. In addition, the program provides enrichment and training sessions for principals and teachers to help them clarify their own Jewish identity, learn to accommodate the diverse backgrounds of their students, and implement a schoolwide program of Jewish education that is geared to action based on Jewish social values.. The program operates for four intensive years in each school. After that, schools ...

The Epilepsy Foundation Research Unit (EFRU) values the practice of responsible, high quality, robust and transparent research to complement the organisations vision that no one should go it alone with epilepsy and its overall strategy.. We support research that has an overall aim of improving the needs and the quality of life of people with epilepsy so that they feel safe and connected in the community. We support the process of co-design/production in the development and undertaking of research projects. It is important that the perspectives of people and their families with epilepsy are a key part of research and we feel we can facilitate this process in the most appropriate way.. We do this by translating epilepsy research findings (internally and externally produced) into our services, our practices, and also to inform or influence government policy so that the people with epilepsy are supported and their needs are met.. We use the Australian Code for the Responsible Conduct of Research ...

In this paper we present findings from the two bar smoking projects. Study 1 focused on understanding differing rates of non-compliance among a random sample of San Francisco stand-alone bars. Study 2 has concentrated on San Francisco stand-alone bars serving primarily Irish, Asian, and Latino patrons. Both studies have used a mixed method approach to research, coupling quantitative and qualitative data generated though structured observation with data collected from semi-structured interviews with bar patrons and staff. All procedures in both studies were reviewed for compliance with research ethics guidelines and were approved by the institutional review board of the Pacific Institute for Research and Evaluation. After identifying the potential universe of urban stand-alone bars through compilation of California Alcohol Beverage Control data, listings in local print and internet bar guides, phone books, and newspapers targeting various ethnic groups, a rigorous in-person survey was conducted ...

Germline editing is banned in New Zealand under guidelines set by the Health Research Council of New Zealand. As part of the Research Ethics Guidelines, the agency concluded in 2018, there is insufficient knowledge about the possible consequences, hazards and effects on future generations of germline gene editing. Implanting genetically modified embryos is also banned by the Human Assisted Reproductive Technology (HART) Act 2004. Although genetically modified is not defined in the act, the Royal Society of New Zealands gene editing panel considers gene editing genetic modification. There is ongoing discussion among scientists about whether germline gene editing should be allowed.. Products/Research. None. Regulatory Timeline. 2019: An international group of researchers, including some from New Zealand, call for a global moratorium on clinical uses of germline editing after a Chinese scientist genetically edited embryos during fertility treatments and at least two of those embryos were ...
