Conducting of clinical trials is closely associated with the ethical justification, with ensuring the rights and safety of the subjects participating in them. Only through trials, it becomes possible to obtain reliable data for the inclusion of new drugs in practice, which are designed to save millions of lives. In the constantly developing field of clinical research, science does not stand still and it becomes necessary to conduct more and more new research: pediatric, geriatric, biomedical products and research involving acute social problems, and of course they all involve certain risks during their implementation. The question of the ethics of conducting research in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic is very relevant at the moment, when it is necessary to make quick decisions in the interests of all mankind, assessing all possible risks that they may entail.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
