Notes

Lack of informed consent itself can provide grounds for suit; here, I assume informed consent, as do Gliwa and Berkman.

The standard of care due under an ancillary care obligation, as described by Gliwa and Berkman, could also differ from the standard of care due in conducting principal research activities. This brief commentary does not address these possible differences.
