Description

Description

Sedig and colleagues identified trust as the most common theme in transcripts of focus group discussions about the consent form for the University of Michigan Medical School Central Biorepository. Participants expressed distrust of medical and research communities, perceived contradictions in the consent materials, stressed the significance of a strong doctor-patient relationship, and emphasized the importance of allowing time to process information.
