Money matters roil Cleveland Clinic's reputation
Article Abstract:
An independent audit of the famed Cleveland Clinic revealed that the clinic and its scientists are not attentive enough to financial conflicts of interest and the finding is prompting the clinic to change the way its scientists report and manage conflicts. Several clinic officials have had questionable financial ties with makers of medical devices and drugs tested on the clinic's patients, and the clinic has reached a point of imbalance between innovation and transparency.
