Consent in Clinical Research: Relational Autonomy and Technological Advancement

Clinical research is a form of experimentation involving people, their data, or their tissue, either individually or as a community that contributes to improved healthcare. Informed consent is a critical process of providing participants with important information pertaining to the clinical trial, including what procedures they will undergo and possible risks and benefits. This is central to the success conduct of the clinical study.

Dr Ian Pieper will discuss his PhD research on the theoretical model of relational autonomy and its application to the practical consideration of the ethical conduct of clinical research.
