  • Title: Financial conflicts of interest in biomedical research: the need to improve the system.
    Author: Wang AT, Montori VM, Murad MH.
    Journal: Drug News Perspect; 2010 Nov; 23(9):607-12. PubMed ID: 21152455.
    Abstract:
    Fifty years ago, the issue of conflict of interest in biomedical research appeared in the national spotlight and has remained in a state of constant evolution. Government legislation caused a boom in collaborations between physicians, researchers, academic institutions and industry. These relationships continue to advance medical science and make meaningful progress, yet they may threaten the integrity of physicians and researchers and the public's trust in medicine. This article will highlight the evolution of industry relationships and conflict of interest over time, discuss methods by which industry can potentially exert effects and propose new directions for the future.
