Development of an institutional curriculum in ethics and public health
What is this about?
This study addresses the need for professional development opportunities for persons with research, clinical or administrative duties and also a shortage of evaluations of ethics programs and curricula. The authors surveyed hygiene, epidemiology and microbiology professionals who attended 7 ethics courses. The study showed that most attendees demonstrated increased knowledge in research and public health ethics, which affirmed the importance of such training activities.
