I'm Holly Taylor.
I'm a faculty in the Department of Bioethics,
and I'll be your course director.
You'll see me multiple times, but we also have faculty,
other faculty from the department
and guest faculty who will be either
joining us in person or virtually throughout the
term.
I'm going to give you all a
relatively quick introduction to the course.
This is me
and a quick disclaimer.
You'll see this whenever I'm up on the at
the podium and other department faculty.
This is just a reminder that we're speaking.
On behalf of ourselves and not,
taking an official position as it relates to NIH, DHHS, or
the U.S.
government.
And as I've just highlighted, a couple things here.
Doctor Grady is going to introduce
a framework this morning,
and that framework will be, the basis
for the course.
And looking more closely at some of the
key principles in the framework.
We're going to talk a little about codes and regulations.
I should say that, we're in the US,
we're at the NIH.
Most of what we're going to talk about
is U.S.
centric, but I'm hoping that much of this
is relevant to those of you who are not in
the US.
And feel free to ask questions about things.
And I can maybe
refer you to resources if it's not something I know.
Because I'm generally domestically
focused.
We'll talk about IRBs, informed consent,
risks and benefits, fair subject selection.
We'll have a day on genetics research.
We'll have a panel this year of individuals
who have participated in clinical research
here at the Clinical Center,
which I'm really excited about.
And then we'll end the term, with a panel on
for three different lectures on international collaborative
research.
