VOLUME 46 ISSUE 9 THURSDAY 27th APRIL 1972. FREE TO STUDENTS 5c ON THE STREET REGISTERED FOR TRANSMISSION BY POST c u m AS A NEWSPAPER' Traditionally medical students are the most conservative group on campus and the most easily influenced by their staff members. As the majority of volunteer guinea-pig experiments are being performed in the Medical Faculty it is hoped that this article will stir them into serious debate. My own feelings on the matter can be best summed up by the following three points, which a patient unavoidably receives is universally regarded as justified on a diagnostic cost-benefit analysis. But in the case of “volunteers” who are irradiated when there is not even claimed to be any benefit to them, the issue of a permissible dose cannot apply. A solution to overcome any possibility of genetic damage being passed on to succeeding generations is to use only subjects who are passed the child-bearing age-not students. In my view any existing hazard that can be avoided and is not avoided is unreasonable. At the present time safeguards to protect students are trying to be worked out. Members of the Medical Faculty insist that they are the best judges as to whether or not a medical experiment should proceed or not. However there are more than just medical considerations involved and I think it is disastrous for students for such decisions to be made only by interested parties. Guincn A satisfactory alternative might be to have all experiments of aknown or potentially hazardous nature referred to a widely represented University Safety Committee (with student representation) for prior vetting. The committee should be satisfied that all hazards involved in the experiments have been explained to student subjects. This would necessitate an expansion of the University Safety Committee role which is presently little more than the university’s fire-hose checking agency. Also there would need to PIGS be a change in some of the present members attitudes to problems such as ethics which can no longer be dismissed as not being any concern of theirs. 1. That the practice of using “Student volunteers” in radio isotope For sometime now students have been used in various ingestion research experiments by staff members be nents as subjects for research experiments. discontinued. Towards the end of last year moves were made to establish a set 2. That when a research experiment of a known or potentially rules to be followed by investigators whenever students are used, hazardous nature is to be performed using “student volunteers”, drawing up of a set of rules was passed onto the University students be recruited from outside of the department or faculty Committee which was specially augmented by interested concerned. from Senate. 3. That any research experiment under (2) be not only approved One of the recommendations referred from the Executive of the by the head of department and dean concerned but also by the of Medicine which was unanimously supported by the university safety committee. The committee must be satisfied meeting was that. . . that all hazards involved in the experiment are known by the “The Code of Ethics laid down by the Medical Research student before any approved experiment is permitted to be until of New Zealand (MRC) should apply to all experiments on carried out. nan subjects whether the investigator be supported by the MRC BOB ANDERSON not.” A USA Senior Rep on Senate has recently com plete a Ph.D in Disagreement arose in the augmented meeting as to whether or Radiation Chem istry and w ill shortly be taking up a post-doctoral the MRC’s Code of Ethics could be satisfactorily applied when position in Germ any. were used as subjects for experiments carried out by staff Also I was particularly concerned about problems arising Dear Sir, the use of students in radio-isotope ingestion experiments. Congratulations to Nick Yule on his tremendous Clause 6 o f the Code o f Ethics states “Before the research article—"The Real Jesus." It was really refreshing to see inject is undertaken, the investigator m ust obtain the free consent Christ presented in his true colours—not as a weak, slightly I the subject o r o f h is guardian, preferably in w riting and in the pathetic figure but as a strong and courageous man.

This clause stresses that the investigator must obtain the free M A R Y D U N N . onsent of the subject. However, free volunteering by students is ipossible owing to the unavoidable coercion inherent in the taff-student relationship. In the Medical Faculty, for example, a irge proportion of a student’s passing grade is based on assessed larks given by staff members and it can be argued that any staff lember who may influence a student’s assessment (in present or bsequent years) should therefore be debarred from using students volunteers. With all the best will in the world on behalf of the laff member I believe that the position of students with respect to taff members is such that free volunteering is impossible. Part o f clause 4 states: “The investigator m ust be satisfied that the research w ill not upose unreasonable discom fort o r hazard upon the subject. ” This clause highlights the special problem associated with idio-isotope ingestion experiments. High energy radiation causes tations in all species and genetists agree that there is no known kreshold below which damage does not occur. Concepts such as ‘permissible dose” are based on calculable damage to somatic cells, ffects in somatic cells however dramatic can affect only the (dividual in whom they occur. Effects in germ line cells, on the other hand, can be passed on to succeeding generations, and thus (feet whole populations. At the present time there is considerable controversy over the extent of damage occurring in germ line cells Bid workers in this Field are calling for more work to be done with ideal mimals. Retrospective surveys looking for radiation damage in mans from low doses (eg from fallout) can determine the ctures, lequency of transmissible chromosomal abnormalities among the t to us ffspring of irradiated people but there has not been enough time or abnormalities to manifest themselves. Incidentally another of lie MRC Code of Ethics, clause 9 states: “New therapeutic or experim ental procedures w hich are at the ige o f early evaluation and w hich m ight have long-term effects ). jiould not be undertaken unless fu ll provision has been m ade fo r iALER fterm care and observation on the subject. ” 1 D. No such long-term observation of student subjects has ever been fanned. In any case what students need is protection beforehand; t surveys of damage afterwards. One has to be careful as to what is meant by permissible dose. ie concept of a permissible dose arises only in those cases where the person gains some benefit during an experience in which he is unavoidably irradiated. For example when an isotope of iodine is used to map diseased areas of the thyroid gland the radiation dose CUESI We pu method o EDITORML from d o c t and replie Shadbolt method.

These myths become deeply embedded in the audience These small time hoods were often made more glamorous and unless a new film plays upon that myth, chances are it than they actually were and their crimes bigger than they will be a box office flop. A recent example of this was probably were, so that when the G-men finally got them, In concentrating on two minor films there are limitations Peter Fonda's film "THE HIRED HAND".

By adding the social significance of a film new, people didn't know how to take it. like "THE ENFORCER”, it is shown to be done.

If you are on the side of Billy Jack, that's reason these films continue to appeal is simple, the social fine, but be careful, the film offers American justice as a myths which are inherent in that work still for one reason solution.
