Due: March 22, at Noon (12pm) For this assignment, you can choose one of two options. Both options are available to everyone. OPTION 1: Research Ethics Cover Letter After teaching this course several times, I have found that some students are very uncomfortable with the philosophy essay format. Moreover, for many biology, science, or nursing students in this course, you may never have taken a philosophy course before, and may never take another philosophy course after biomedical ethics. So, this option is designed to allow you to write in a format that may be more familiar to you, and may be helpful in your future professional life. For this option, you are applying to a research ethics board for research ethics approval under the Tri-Council Policy Statement on Research Involving Human Beings. The familiar written format is a formal letter, demonstrating understanding of both the Tri-Council Policy Statement, and of the central biomedical concepts of this course: informed consent, respect for autonomy, fairness and equity, and privacy and confidentiality. Your letter will apply for research ethics board approval based on a real or imagined experiment involving human beings. Format: 5-6 pages excluding header, double spaced, 12 point font. Begin with a standard letter heading and greeting. (Perhaps addressed to “Research Ethics Board” at an imagined hospital address, and “To Whom it May Concern”). The experiment should be described briefly in no more than one paragraph. The bulk of your 5 pages should be taken up with demonstrating (i) that you understand informed consent, respect for autonomy, fairness and equity, and privacy and confidentiality and (ii) that the experiment meets these requirements. In aid of (i), please use definitions for these concepts (paraphrased or quoted, and correctly cited) wherever appropriate. Once a concept is defined, you will demonstrate the depth of your understanding by showing how the experimental design considers them appropriately. For example, informed consent is difficult if not impossible to achieve in experiments involving patients in an emergency situation. Those in extreme amounts of pain, or unable to breath, are not in a position to understand that an experiment is optional, nor to make clear and unforced decisions. You are therefore advised to choose a clinical setting for your experiment that will be compatible with informed consent, respect for autonomy, fairness and equity, and privacy and confidentiality. If you choose an experiment involving children, or patients with diminished capacities, you may also find the need to add a discussion of competence. Organization: For the Research Ethics Cover Letter, you are responsible for organizing the material in a clear and logical manner. There will be significant marks allocated for clarity including organization, grammar, and correct citation. You may find it helpful to use subheadings in your letter, such as: (1) Experimental Design; (2) Informed Consent; (3) Respect for Autonomy; (4) Fairness and Equity; and (5) Privacy and Confidentiality. OPTION 2: Thesis Defense Essay This option is available to anyone who is interested in writing a philosophy essay, or who wants to write about one of the major controversies examined in this course. For this option, you will write a philosophical thesis defense essay responding to one of the following questions:
