Summary
"Conflict of interest in medical research, education, and practice provides a comprehensive look at conflict of interest in medicine. It offers principles to inform the design of policies to identify, limit, and manage conflicts of interest without damaging constructive collaboration with industry. It calls for both short-term actions and long-term commitments by institutions and individuals, including leaders of academic medical centers; professional societies; patient advocacy groups; government agencies; and drug, device, and pharmaceutical companies."--Jacket
