#GFBR starts tomorrow! 94 colleagues from 38 countries meeting in Kuala Lumpur to discuss #ethical issues arising in #research into #health and #climatechange. Meeting background paper: tinyurl.com/bdzyae2t We’ll be posting updates at linkedin.com/company/global…
📢 Applications now OPEN for #GFBR on the topic 'ethical issues arising in #research into #health and #climatechange'. 🌎🩺Deadline: 6 May 2024. Meeting in November 2024 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. More info here: tinyurl.com/ykt4wr2j #researchethics #bioethics #healthresearch
As this year's #GFBR comes to an end, we’re excited to announce next year's topic: ‘#Ethical issues arising in research into #health and #climatechange’ (working title). We expect to launch the call for case studies and participants around April 2024. Looking forward!
Next #GFBR session chaired by @anetrid on power differentials in #researchprioritysetting. What principles should govern collaborations between research groups in HIC & LMIC settings? Case study presenters David Wanjeri (Kenya), Starlin Mythri (India) & John Barugahare (Uganda).
Day 2 at #GFBR: Starting with a re-cap of day 1 by @Anagpalmero and Francis Kombe. Followed by a Pecha Kucha session of short talks by colleagues from India, Kenya, Switzerland, Honduras, Mexico and Malaysia. Great start to the day!
Next up at #GFBR: Funder panel chaired by Ludovic Reveiz. @CKrubiner @wellcometrust, Michael Makanga @EDCTP3, Mongezi Mdhluli @MRCza & Barbara Sina @Fogarty_NIH talk about how & when research prioritization takes place at their organisations, who is involved & the criteria used.
Great Pecha Kucha session at #GFBR – 5 minute, lively snapshots on the #ethics of health #researchprioritysetting with perspectives from Kenya, Tanzania, Philippines, Belgium, Pakistan, Ecuador and Ghana.
Excellent keynote from Joseph Millum giving an overview of the methods and deep ethical challenges of health #researchprioritysetting. Deciding how to allocate a scarce & valuable resource and who should benefit is an ethical question.
#GFBR starts today! 93 colleagues from 43 countries meeting in beautiful Montreux, Switzerland to discuss the #ethics of #researchprioritysetting. Interested? See the meeting background paper for an overview of the topic: tinyurl.com/2yp5tm4y
⏰Deadline 15 May! Submit a case study to share your perspective on the #ethics of #prioritysetting for #healthresearch - how, by whom and why is funding allocated and who should be involved? Or apply as a participant. Places awarded on a competitive basis.
