Abstract
You have just been recruited as a young assistant professor in a clinical department. An associate professor in the same department seeks you out as he is keen for you to participate in an ongoing industry-sponsored research project. The study has been ongoing for 12 months, but only 40 % of the required numbers of patients have been enrolled.
You review the protocol, the consent form, and the data sheet and do a literature search and decide that the study has merit. You interview the two nursing coordinators who are involved with the study.
