[Is research in Germany up for sale? Results of a study of Transparency International Germany].
The intransparency of the complex Public Health System opens up the possibility for the abuse of all groups acting in this system. Some of them damage this system without hesitation even by corruption, and keep their focus on the personal interests instead of public interests. Particularly within research there are medical scientists and experts, who work and publish being dependant on grants from the pharmaceutical industries.
