Description
Summary:Research involving the dead has not been regulated, and little, if any, institutional oversight has been provided. As a result, the numbers and types of research projects involving the dead are at best poorly characterized and at worst, unknown. The University of Pittsburgh instituted a mechanism for oversight of such research in June 2002. In this article, we report the experience of that oversight body, the Committee for Oversight of Research Involving the Dead (CORID), during its first 18 months.
