Exploitation and ethics in clinical trials | Boghuma Kabisen Titanji | TEDxGoodenoughCollege

A woman in sub-Saharan Africa is part of a cutting-edge HIV clinical trial — but she can’t afford a bus ticket to her health clinic, let alone the life-saving antiretrovirals she’ll need. Boghuma Kabisen Titanji asks an important question: How can researchers looking for a cure make sure they’re not taking advantage of the people most affected by the pandemic? TEDxGoodenoughCollege combines the unique format and beauty of TED with the ingenuity and reach of the post-graduate community of Goodenough College. In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience.
