Ethical Principles in Clinical Research
In the fast-paced world of clinical research, it’s easy to become immersed in daily operations, regulatory requirements, and study logistics. But behind every protocol and data point are the individuals who place their trust in the research process.
This webinar invited you to pause and reflect on the ethical foundations that safeguard human participants in research. We explored the historical milestones that shaped today’s protections, examining how past research abuses led to the creation of oversight structures like the Belmont Report and Institutional Review Boards (IRBs).
Together, we delved into core ethical principles outlined in the Belmont Report and reviewed how they continue to guide ethical decision-making in research today. We also compared these research ethics with those that govern clinical practice, highlighting key similarities and differences.
Finally, we addressed contemporary ethical challenges in research and discussed how the Belmont framework remains relevant in navigating today’s complex landscape.
Whether you’re a seasoned researcher or new to the field, this live webinar deepened the understanding of the ethical responsibilities we all share in protecting the most important stakeholder of all: the patient.
Upon completion of this continuing education program, participants should be able to:
- Understand why the system of research protections in place today exists in the form that it does
- Explain the three ethical principles of the Belmont Report
- Apply these ethical principles in everyday work in human research
