    Research participants are afforded protections to ensure their rights and welfare are not unduly jeopardized by research activities. Yet people who do not meet the criteria for research participant status may likewise be impacted by research activities, and ethicists argue that protections should be afforded these “research bystanders.” The standard rationale for extending protections to research bystanders contends that they are sufficiently like research participants that the ethical principle…Read more

    Interprofessional collaboration-in-practice: The contested place of ethics
    with C. Ewashen and G. McInnis-Perry
    Nursing Ethics (3): 0969733012462048. 2013.
    The main question examined is: How do nurses and other healthcare professionals ensure ethical interprofessional collaboration-in-practice as an everyday practice actuality?

    Journal of Medical Ethics 48 (11): 845-851. 2022.

    Ethics of non-therapeutic research on imminently dying patients in the intensive care unit
    with Charles Weijer, Derek Debicki, Geoffrey Laforge, Loretta Norton, Teneille Gofton, and Marat Slessarev
    Journal of Medical Ethics 49 (5): 311-318. 2023.

The vulnerabilities of the imminently dying, together with societal disquiet around death and dying, contribute to an intuition that such research is beyond the legitimate scope of scientific inquiry. Yet excluding imminently dying patients from research hinders the advancement of medical science to the detriment of future patients. Building on existing ethical guidelines for research, we p…Read more
