Ethics in research
Choose an example of unethical research (PUBLIC HEALTH SERVICE SYPHILIS STUDY AT TUSKEGEE – TUSKEGEE STUDY) from CITI training or the readings and examine the impact of unethical research on participants, researchers, and practice.
Include a critique of how international and federal regulations were changed or could be changed in order to protect research participants from vulnerable and diverse populations.
Consult the Belmont Report and the WMA Declaration of Helsinki in your examination, both of which can be found in the module resources.
