Interview: Eric Meslin, PhD
Director, IU Center for Bioethics
The National Institutes of Health is getting ready to overhaul the rules that regulate research involving human subjects.
It’s a real juggling act to ensure sure peoples’ private health information isn’t made public without their consent and to provide enough details to researchers.
Barbara Lewis sits down with the director of the IU Center for Bioethics, Eric Meslin, PhD, to get a better sense of how the rules could change.
Bioethicist Dr. Eric Meslin is a regular contributor to Sound Medicine.
