Section outline

  • This is the last teaching week for the Research ethics course. It is dedicated to responsibilities of sponsors and researchers, community participation in the research process, and professional responsibility

    Though the main researcher or the Principal Investigator remain the main responsible for ethical conduct of the research, the sponsor has a role to play. For instance, there shouldn't be any sponsorship for the study that is unethical, i.e which does not comply with all ethical principles. The community should be informed on the study being conducted and should be the first to benefit the study. Therefore, there is a need for the community to be represented.

    Learning outcome: 

    At the end of this session, students will be able to understand the responsibilities of sponsors and researchers

    Learning activity: You are invited to read the WHO guidelines for health researchers (the corresponding chapter)

    I hope you will enjoy the session
