In response to the increasing need for research ethics expertise in low and middle income countries (LMICs), the NIH's Fogarty International Research Ethics Education and Curriculum Development Program has provided grants for the development of training programs in international research ethics for LMIC professionals since 2000. This collection of papers draws upon the combined expertise of Fogarty grantees, trainees, and other experts to assess the state of research ethics in LMICs, and the lessons learned over 12 years of international research ethics education; to assess future needs; and to chart a way forward to meet those needs. In this introductory paper we briefly sketch the evolution of research ethics as applied to LMIC research, the underpinning and evolution of the Fogarty bioethics program, and summarize key conclusions from the other papers in the collection.
鉴于中低收入国家(LMICs)对研究伦理专业知识的需求日益增加,美国国立卫生研究院(NIH)的福格蒂国际研究伦理教育与课程开发项目自2000年以来一直为中低收入国家专业人员开展国际研究伦理培训项目提供资助。本论文集汇集了福格蒂项目受资助者、受训人员及其他专家的综合专业知识,以评估中低收入国家的研究伦理状况,总结12年国际研究伦理教育的经验教训;评估未来需求;并规划出满足这些需求的前进道路。在这篇引言性论文中,我们简要概述了应用于中低收入国家研究的研究伦理的演变、福格蒂生物伦理项目的基础与发展,并总结了本论文集中其他论文的主要结论。
