Endocrine Today: ACRE Members Weigh-In




Hat-tip to the Policy and Medicine blog for their coverage of a recent article in Endocrine Today, "Conflict of interest’ outdated phrase for physician-industry relationship?", that features several ACRE members. Tom Stossel, Carey Kimmelstiel, Jeff Garber, Michael Weber, and Lance Stell provided commentary on a range of conflict of interest issues, from industry support for medical organizations to the inherent "framing bias" that the terminology "conflict of interest" sets up.  

It's worth reading the original HERE and the commentary over at  Policy and Medicine HERE.
