Describ what sorts of ethical problems can happen when US medical researchers conduct medical research in developing countries?

Use the articles and links attached to answer questions. 
1. In the Nuremberg Code, find at least one point that focused on the research subject’s welfare and one point that focused on the research subject’s autonomy.
2. In the Belmont Report, find at least one point that focused on the research subject’s welfare and one point that focused on the research subject’s autonomy. 
3. What was so ethically wrong with the Tuskegee syphilis study? (Use the four principles of bioethics in your ethical analysis.)
4. What sorts of ethical problems can happen when US medical researchers conduct medical research in developing countries? Specifically, what was good and bad about the AZT studies in Africa as discussed by Glantz and his co-authors?
5. In your own words, explain the proposal offered by Glantz and his co-authors for how medical researchers should conduct their research in developing countries. Do you think this is a good proposal: why or why not? Do you have any practical or ethical concerns for how the proposal would work?

Discussion post 1
This is one of the most important points made in the Belmont Report, which was established as a research-ethics policy in the 1970s after the public revelation of the Tuskegee syphilis study. The ethical worry is about can go wrong when people who think they are getting clinical care are actually research participants, or when people running a medical study treat it as though they’re engaged in patient care. Blurring the key differences between the two can be dangerous and unethical. 
So…how, exactly? Let’s brainstorm from the perspectives of the different parties involved:

Q1: For a participant/patient, how are things importantly different whether they are a participant in medical research vs. a patient receiving clinical care? 
Q2: For a researcher/clinician, how are things importantly different whether what they’re doing is medical research vs. what they’re doing is patient care? 

Discussion post 2
Before you read the articles for this week, what — if anything — had you ever heard about the Tuskegee syphilis study? What sorts of historical, medical, and ethical information about the Tuskegee study did you learn from our reading that caught your attention? Do you have any follow-up questions? If so, this is a great place to ask. I will do my best to help sketch things out further. I invite others to join in too.

What is the genetic basis of Bartters Syndrome and Gitelmans Syndrome. What is the molecular basis of the disease? (what is abnormal at the cellular, biochemical, or molecular level?)

Assignment Topic: Bartter’s Syndrome and Gitelman’s Syndrome

In this activity, you will independently on your own explore the Physiology and Functional Genomics as it relates to human disease.
Procedure: For each disease, you will write a short (no more than 1000 words total) addressing each of the following. Each of these questions can be addressed sufficiently in one paragraph (250 words or less for each question).

1) What is the genetic basis of Bartters Syndrome and Gitelmans Syndrome. What is the molecular basis of the disease? (what is abnormal at the cellular, biochemical, or molecular level?)

3) What are the physiologic implications of the disease? (what is abnormal about the physiology of people with this disease?)

4) What are the treatment options?

NOTE: An important objective of this exercise is to find reliable information that is pertinent to your needs. You could start with standard textbooks, such as Harrison’s Textbook of Medicine, Ganong’s Review of Medical Physiology. However, one disadvantage of relying solely on this approach is that textbooks are rarely current. After gathering general information, consult reliable information online. There are several sites which exist for the purpose of teaching, beyond merely Wikipedia. For example, see http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/disease. Another excellent resource is PubMed, the national repository of all peer-reviewed medical literature. In PubMed, you will be able to find both primary literature and reviews which will be useful. This site is accessed through the National Library of Medicine, and can be found at:
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed.

Describe how treating race as a social construct might change the way we understand various social issues in our society? 

Race as a Social Construct
??????????
In chapter 10, “Race, Ethnicity, and Racism,” the authors define race as a “socially construct category.”  Below are links to a couple of articles that further delineate this idea.
