Research Ethics Review: Identifying Public Policy and Program Gaps

Year: 2014

Type: article

Abstract: We present an analytical framework for use by fellows of the Fogarty International Center-sponsored Advanced Certificate Program in Research Ethics for Central and Eastern Europe to identify gaps in the public policies establishing research ethics review systems that impede them from doing their job of protecting human research subjects. The framework, illustrated by examples from post-Communist countries, employs a logic model based on the public policy and public management literature. This paper is part of a collection of papers analyzing the Fogarty International Center's International Research Ethics Education and Curriculum program.
