Research on Human Subjects

November/December 2000

This edition of the Bulletin reminds us that research on human subjects poses old, yet vexingly elusive questions. In a featured article, Conspiracy of Silence: Medical Research and Moral Obligation, author Paul Root Wolpe asks if our medical research system truly encourages-or permits-subjects to consent freely, knowledgeably, and generously.
