Description |
| |
|
Clinical research with children is an important step in the noble cause to
advance medical care in children. As we endeavor to make such advances, we must
respect and protect the children who serve as subjects in scientific research.
In this Fifth USF Symposium on Bioethics, Richard Behrman, Chairman, Committee
on the Ethical Conduct of Clinical Research Involving Children and Professor of
Pediatrics, will present an overview of the Institute of Medicine Committee Report
and discuss its recommendations concerning the roles and responsibilities of investigators.
Dr. Behrman will also discuss the challenges facing investigators as they attempt
to balance the need to advance research involving children with the need to protect
children from the risks of participation in research.
