Charles Weijer

Although for the last 50 years, ethicists dealing with human experimentation have focused primarily on the need to protect individual research subjects and vulnerable groups, biomedical research, especially in genetics, now requires the establishment of standards for the protection of communities. We have developed such a strategy, based on five steps. (i) Identification of community characteristics relevant to the biomedical research setting, (ii) delineation of a typology of different types of communities using these characteristics, (iii) determination of the range of possible community protections, (iv) creation of connections between particular protections and one or more community characteristics necessary for its …

The Ethical Analysis Of Risks And Potential Benefits In Human Subjects Research: History, Theory, And Implications For U.S. Regulation, Charles Weijer Dec 1999

The Ethical Analysis Of Risks And Potential Benefits In Human Subjects Research: History, Theory, And Implications For U.S. Regulation, Charles Weijer

Charles Weijer

This paper addresses three questions central to the ethical analysis of risks and potential benefits in human subjects research:

1. How was the ethical analysis of risk understood by the members of the U.S. National Commission for the Protection of Human Subjects of Biomedical and Behavioral Research (National Commission)?
2. What conceptual framework should guide the ethical analysis of risk?
3. What changes to U.S. regulations would the implementation of such a framework require?
