- Title
Data and Safety Monitoring Boards Academic Credit Where Credit Is Due?
- Authors
Armstrong, Paul W.; Califf, Robert M.
- Abstract
The authors discuss the role played by data and safety monitoring boards (DSMB) or data monitoring committees in the conduct of clinical trials. It mentions the lack of qualified individuals who are willing and able to service on such boards and the problem's exacerbation by financial constraints being faced by academic medical centers. The authors also argue that DSMB service should be considered a significant academic contribution deserving of appropriate considering within academic systems.
