Consent for research with biological samples: one-time general consent versus a gift model.

Wendler, David · Ann Intern Med · 2012

Where this comes from

Abstract

This analysis suggests that one-time general consent is better than a gift model for addressing 5 central challenges that arise in the context of obtaining and storing human biological samples for future research. This conclusion supports the suggestion made in a recent Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking to incorporate one-time general consent for research with human biological samples into any revisions of the federal regulations.
