🔬 #PeerOnSky starts! “Clinical Trial Participants’ Views of the Risks and Benefits of Data Sharing” by Mello et al. (2018). They found participants value data sharing for science, but worry about privacy breaches. A 2018 perspective still relevant today! Does this reflect current views? #DataEthics
