Discussion on the conflict of interests in the achievements transformation in hospitals / 中华医院管理杂志

ABSTRACT

With the constant growth of national investment in science and technology, biomedical scientific and technological achievements keep mushrooming. Hospitals, as a powerful force in high-tech research and development, experimental translation and industrialization of biomedicine research, play an important role in the transfer and translation of scientific and technological achievements. This paper analyzed the conflicts of interest in the achievements translation in hospitals, and considered that conflicts of interest are widespread in practice. Under the background of encouraging innovation and promoting the achievements translation, projects with conflicts of interest should be carried out in hospitals conditionally. While reducing the conflicts of interest, the achievements translation should be done properly.
