Clinical research ethics is the field concerned with protecting the rights, safety, and wellbeing of human participants in medical studies, covering principles such as informed consent, risk-benefit assessment, and equitable subject selection. It's applied by institutional review boards (IRBs), bioethicists, and researchers who must ensure studies comply with frameworks like the Declaration of Helsinki and the Belmont Report. The discipline emerged largely in response to historical abuses in research, shaping modern regulatory oversight of clinical trials.
