RAD255

This course will cover topics like: Medical Imaging Ethics; Reproducible Medical Imaging; Medical Imaging: Cells to Organoids to Animal Models; Ethical Considerations in Clinical Translation of Biomedical Imaging; Ethics of Medical Imaging and Entrepreneurship; Open Sourcing and Implicit Bias in Imaging Research; Medical Imaging and Incidentalomas; Scientific Rigor in Experimental Design; Consideration of Relevant Biological Variables; and Authentication of Resources Data Sharing and Transparency. These discussion-style seminars will review the ethics, responsible conduct of research, rigor and reproducibility in medical imaging research. The course will cover topics not generally offered in MED 255: The Responsible Conduct of Research. The emphasis is on reading and discussions specifically for our research trainees. Students would come prepared with a short presentation of selected research topics and questions of their own based on required reading materials chosen by the speakers. The seminar has no prerequisite other than an interest in medical imaging ethics, but it is preferred to have already completed MED 255: The Responsible Conduct of Research.
