Obtaining informed consent for genomics research in Africa: analysis of H3Africa consent documents

7 Dec 2015

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The rise in genomic and biobanking research worldwide has led to the development of different informed consent models for use in such research. This study analyses consent documents used by investigators in the H3Africa (Human Heredity and Health in Africa) Consortium. METHODS: A qualitative method for text analysis was used to analyse consent documents used in the collection of samples and data in...
