Human Clinical Trials Suspended

Host Bob Edwards talks to Bioethicist Arthur Caplan about the suspension of all federally funded clinical trials involving humans at the University of Oklahoma College of Medicine in Tulsa. The government said researchers at the medical college and a university oversight board, repeatedly violated federal regulations and endangered patients in a cancer study. Arthur Caplan is Director of the Center of Bioethics at the University of Pennsylvania.
