Implementing Justice in Research: Beyond Equitable Selection
No full textThe COVID-19 pandemic and the racial reckoning following the murder of George Floyd and too many other Black and Brown people in the summer of 2020 prompted a broader public discussion of the continuing effects of systemic racism and the need for reform. Within the research community, these experiences and conversations forced a reconsideration about what the principle of justice requires and how to achieve more equitable research. This Article will argue that advancing justice in research is the responsibility of the entire research community—researchers, IRBs, public and private funders, academic institutions that educate and employ researchers, publishers, and more.

Finally, it will consider what steps different stakeholder can take to implement justice in research that can lead to greater health equity
