Presentation from the MI Lunch with the Global Justice Academy on 26 May 2015.
Clinical trials are essential to the production and licensing of pharmaceuticals on the basis that they are both safe and efficacious. This lunchtime seminar outlined how the EU actively facilitates the use of clinical trials data produced in the global South for the production and authorisation of pharmaceuticals in its internal market and highlights some of the ethical implications for those enrolled in the trials (the research subjects).
