I have been t hinking about this "one big trial" that you spoke of earlier. That doesn't leave a lot of room for confidentiality, does it? What if patients or trial participants don't want their information or trial results published? Wouldn't HIPAA have to honor that? Or do you sign away confidentiality when you participate in a trial?

I was just trying to make some sense out of all of this.

Thanks. I am going to the Unity Walk this weekend (April 27). Anybody in thar area come join me.
