Unethical Clinical Trial Outsourcing

This article on Outsource Portfolio details that the growing numbers of companies outsourcing to India is a good thing, so as long as it does not cut the need to protect patients’ rights.

Will this truly help ensure the ethical conduct of clinical trials in India?
