The shifting sands of research ethics and governance: effect on research in paediatrics

C S Beardsmore et al. Arch Dis Child. 2007 Jan.

Abstract

Basic principles governing the ethical conduct of research have not changed but recent years have seen the burgeoning of bureaucracy to support and monitor research ethics and governance. More changes are planned, and the effect of the proposed changes on paediatric research are examined and broadly welcomed.
