Abstract

The article presents the highlights of the Australasian Association of Bioethics and Health Law Conference that was held in Auckland, New Zealand in July 2012. American bioethicist Carl Elliot claimed that 99% of privately financed studies are not inspected by authorities but by private ethics committees for a fee. Elliott also said that using the homeless and mentally ill individuals in clinical trials is a form of exploitation.
