Ethical Aspects of Human Subject Research in Biomedicine (Medical Ethic)

Abstract

dc:description

This dissertation attempts to provide grounds for subjecting the practice of human subject research (HSR) to ethical scrutiny, thereby supporting the need for regulative intervention of some sort, and then attempts to specify how HSR can meet ethical requirements. The study examines the areas in which HSR is ethically sensitive in having a considerable likelihood of leading to ethical abuse or neglect. HSR can compromise the liberty or welfare of subjects and can interfere with the relationship between clinicians and patients.
