title: Nurses' roles in protecting human subjects.
abstract: This article highlighted several nursing roles and strategies for the protection of human subjects including the importance of socializing new nurses into their role responsibilities and reporting questionable scientific conduct. Although different strategies were suggested in relation to each role, one commonality pervaded--nurses, by virtue of their license and focus of their professional discipline, are keys to the protection of human subjects in research.
