The first ever interdisciplinary handbook in the field, this vital resource offers wide-ranging analysis of health research regulation. The chapters confront gaps between documented law and research in practice, and draw on legal, ethical and social theories about what counts as robust research regulation to make recommendations for future directions. The Handbook provides an account and analysis of current regulatory tools - such as consent to participation in research and the anonymization of data to protection participants' privacy - as well as commentary on the roles of the actors and stakeholders who are involved in human health research and its regulation. Drawing on a range of international examples of research using patient data, tissue and other human materials, the collective contribution of the volume is to explore current challenges in delivering good medical research for the public good and to provide insights on how to design better regulatory approaches. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

‘This is an excellent book … I learned a great deal by reading it, gained much food for thought and know that I will return to it often, and hence I can highly recommend it.’

Lyn Horn Source: Bioethics

‘a rigorously edited, multidisciplinary handbook that has it all: from a solid conceptual framework that comprehends the axiological foundations of health research to the corresponding regulatory and procedural safeguards for the subjects involved … This volume in the "Cambridge Handbook" series is the perfect tool for students of health research regulation; biomedical investigators, industry regulators, or those seeking justice before a court of law; and professionals charged with administering justice … Highly recommended.’
