Abstract
Breaching medical ethics in research.
Highlights
As a researcher with several affiliations and commitments, I am often asked to assess clinical research studies, and approve student dissertation proposals prior to their initiation
In the medieval and early modern period the issue of ethics is attributed to scholars of Muslim medicine, such as Ishaq ibn Ali al-Ruhawi, and Muhammad ibn Zakariya ar-Razi, as well as other philosophers, such as Maimonides, Roman Catholic scholastic thinkers like Thomas Aquinas and case-oriented analysts of Catholic moral theology
In 1997, the Council of Europe adopted the European Convention on Human Rights and Biomedicine in order to create a uniform code of medical ethics for its 47 member-states
Summary
As a researcher with several affiliations and commitments, I am often asked to assess clinical research studies, and approve student dissertation proposals prior to their initiation. One of the most common issues of concern which I often come across, is an unethical research methodology, that if conducted, would breach medical ethics in one way or another. This issue goes to show that the subject of medical ethics is often either misconstrued, downplayed, or ignored by students contemplating research in the medical field.
