Adil E. Shamoo, Ph.D., Professor and Editor- in-Chief, Accountability in Research
University of Maryland School of Medicine
The conference is timely to address the pressing issues in medical research. The intense nature of current progress in medical research necessitates anticipating and dealing with potential ethical and compliance issues. Among the issues of concern are: ethics, misconduct, management of research enterprises, integrity of publications, and the protection of human volunteers in clinical trials.
My subject is very important because It is obvious why the prevention and containment of misconduct in research is of vital importance to research and safety of volunteer subjects. In addition, the safety and integrity of data on safety and efficacy during drug development is of vital importance to the public and industry alike.
My speech will consist of a short historical information of misconduct. Afterwards, an illustration of misconduct in research occurs worldwide. The talk will address the latest data on prevalence and possible factors of misconduct. The talk will illustrate current means of containing/prevention of misconduct. Reliance on education and training and whistleblowers to prevent misconduct is not sufficient. I will discuss data audit as a method to contain and prevent misconduct in research.
It is certainly worthwhile to attend the conference to participate in the latest issues on ethics and compliance in medical research.
