Research ethics
We are committed to protecting research participants, upholding ethical standards, and improving our practice at every step of our work.
Clinical trials are how we find out whether a new treatment works and is safe. For many, they provide hope and promise for an improved quality of life.
Clinical trials are carefully designed research studies that answer specific questions about the effectiveness of:
- Preventive techniques
- Medications
- Therapies and treatments
- Surgical techniques
